Scuderia Ferrari Monegasque driver Charles Leclerc speaking after finishing second-fastest in Belgian Grand Prix qualifying, which becomes pole position for the race thanks to Max Verstappen’s power unit grid penalty:
“Exactly the same [to last year. It’s good. I definitely did not expect that this weekend. Obviously with the tricky conditions we could do something above our expectations. So it’s a good day for the team so now we need to focus on tomorrow and see what will happen when the rain is gone. Without this rain, probably P5 was the position we were fighting for with the Mercedes especially. But with the rain it helped us a little bit, but I’m not going to complain. I’m really happy, I’m really happy with the lap in Q3, and it’s good to be back on the front part of the grid. Now we’ve got to finalise that tomorrow. It’s not the easiest first place to keep on the first lap here, but honestly I will see. Every start is different and then once I will be in the car tomorrow through Eau Rouge I will see what the best thing is that I can do. Obviously I’ll try to keep that first place.”
