Scuderia Ferrari Monegasque driver Charles Leclerc provides an explanation for not setting a fast lap in final stages of qualifying for the 2023 Bahrain GP:
“There wasn’t any issue. I think we were in the fight for pole, which was a good surprise to be honest because I did not expect that after testing and after free practices that were a little bit difficult. We managed to find that pace for the qualifying pace, which was great. However, we need to keep in our mind that on the race runs, we seemed to be a little bit on the back foot compared to Red Bull. And I think that we’re in a better place starting third with new tyres than starting first with older. I don’t know if I would have been in pole or not but it would have been close.”
