Charles Leclerc first impressions on finishing P2 in the qualifying session for the 2023 Formula 1 Austrian GP at the 4.318-kilometre Red Bull Ring in Spielberg:
“It feels good to finally have a clean qualifying again and be back on the front row. The feeling has been a bit better in the last few races and then in Q1, Q2 it was about building up to that lap in Q3. I managed to put everything that I wanted in that last lap of Q3, very close to Max. Not enough today but overall I don’t think we expected to be so close to the Red Bulls so it’s a good step forward. Race pace looked quite good in Montreal. Consistency is where we need to focus so we will have to see on Sunday if we have the same pace as Montreal. Red Bull right now is quicker on race pace so it will be difficult but if we can put them in difficulty we will do it all.”
