Tuscan GP: Fifth on the Grid is More than Ferrari Expected, Says Charles Leclerc

News 18  

Charles Leclerc qualified fifth for Ferrari?s 1,000th Formula One world championship race on Saturday and said it was more than he could have expected. Sixth overall going into the race at scenic Mugello, a circuit they own, and on the back of a double retirement at the Italian motorsport temple Monza, Ferrari had no great hopes for this weekend. Leclerc said Ferrari, whose first F1 championship race was in Monaco in the inaugural 1950 season with a first victory at Silverstone in 1951, were still down on performance to those ahead. The fifth place slot was Ferrari?s highest grid position since the fourth round of the season at Silverstone when he started fourth.
