“We’ve got to react”: Charles Leclerc gives Ferrari the wake-up call after dismal Azerbaijan GP performance

Charles Leclerc crashed out in Q3 at the Azerbaijan GP and started the race in P10. It was a hard race for the Monegasque, who started on the mediums, and failed to keep up with his rivals after the only pitstop. The Monegasque let Lewis Hamilton pass for the Briton to chase Lando Norris and Co. But when the team asked to swap the positions back, a misjudgment on Hamilton's end meant Leclerc only finished P9.

Speaking about the struggles for pace at Baku, Charles Leclerc said,

“We've got to react. It's not been a strong weekend at all. It's always easy to blame the car and I think overall the car this weekend hasn't been the strongest and it's been a difficult weekend. We have some explanations, first is probably the approach that I've had on the set-up, which hasn't been the right one. Second, I think our car is struggling whenever it's cool and it's been quite cold since yesterday and that made us struggle.”

The Singapore GP has historically been a strong circuit for the Scuderia, with Carlos Sainz winning the race in 2023.
