Charles Leclerc feels Ferrari lost out on a front row lockout for Sunday’s Italian Grand Prix because he didn’t have a slipstream on his final run in Q3.
Due to Monza’s high-speed nature, drivers often try to position their cars close to rivals to benefit from a slipstream.
Different teams deployed difficult tactics with Verstappen completing his qualifying laps without a tow, while pole sitter Sainz did.The Monegasque thought the lack of slipstream cost him “one position at least”“Of course, on my side I'm a bit disappointed. I obviously wanted to be first but seeing that Carlos is P1 is great for Ferrari.
“He has done an incredible job all weekend. I've been struggling quite a bit more: FP1, FP2, FP3 and qualifying I managed to put everything together, so I was really happy. “Unfortunately, in Q3 I didn't have a slipstream. That probably cost us one position at least, but it's life. We should be happy, especially on my side. I've been struggling a lot.”
