It hurts to be starting at the back tomorrow, especially with how competitive the car is this weekend. Q: Tell me please about tomorrow? It will not be an easy one, but maybe you can also have an extra support, an extra feeling from there.ĬS: Yeah. I was quicker in every corner but slower in every straight. I had to take a lot of risks to compensate for the lack of tow. But, you know, I’m starting last anyway tomorrow, so it’s not like it changes my life. The only issue is that in Q3 I didn’t have a tow and this probably cost me those two or three tenths, you know, in the battle for pole position. I was feeling very well and I was pushing flat out through Q1, Q2, and Q3. How was your lap, how was your session? Fantastic the first one, maybe not perfect the second stint?Ĭarlos Sainz: Yeah, no, it was honestly a very good quali session. Carlos, you were on pole on the first set of tyres. MV: Yeah, just you know, trying to stay out of trouble, of course, in the beginning and then just work my way forward. How is it going to be for your mindset there? Q: Yeah, five positions of penalty will not be so easy in the approach to the first corner.

I’ve enjoyed the whole weekend so far and I think it will be an interesting battle tomorrow. But I think, all in all, it was still a good lap. But I think for tomorrow it can be quite strong – and also knowing that we have to start a bit back, you know. But of course, we chose to go for a bit more downforce around here and I think over one lap it’s maybe not the best. You were suffering a bit on the maximum speed in the first and third sector? How was your lap in general? Q: Max, second position, just at the end. Why? Did you feel something special there because it was much faster than before?ĬL: I just took much more risk! It was the last lap and I knew I had to find quite a lot of performance there and I just went for it and it worked out. Lesmo 1 and Lesmo 2 were incredibly quick.

Q You surprised everyone with your middle sector. And I really hope that we can do just like in 2019 tomorrow. I knew that in this last lap in Q3 I had to put everything together and I managed to do it, so very happy with the lap, very happy with the performance. I knew that there was quite a bit of potential in the car but I didn’t put everything together. I mean, it wasn’t an easy qualifying session. Q: What a pole position, man! Talk us through your lap because it was amazing to watch and everyone has enjoyed it!Ĭharles Leclerc: Yeah, I’ll start in English, I’ll finish in Italian, as always.
