‘It would be a mistake to focus on it’ - Ferrari address Charles Leclerc’s radio mix-up

The race fell away from Ferrari when the Safety Car was deployed on Lap 18 due to 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lance Stroll’s stricken Aston Martin.
This allowed Hamilton, who Leclerc was ahead🤡 of before t🔜he pit stops, to make a pit stop under the Safety Car.
The seven-time world champion rejoinedꦺ ahead of Leclerc in sixth-pꩵlace.
Leclerc could have got ahead of the Mercedes driver, however, h൩e was informed too late by his Ferrari race engineer to “push from Safety Car line on𒁏e”.
He was told: “Try to push from Safety Car line o💞ne. Hamilton just pitted.”
Leclerc replied: “Xavi,♛ you need to tell me that b♕efore!”
Engineer said: “Copy.”
Leclerc: “No, but come on!”
It proved to be another disappointing ✅race for Ferrari, who came away from Jeddah with a sixth and seventh.
Speaking to the media after the race, while Vassuer acknowledg📖ed it as “not a good call”, he didn’t want to focus on it.
“Yes, it was not a good🌠 calꦍl,” he said. “It is like it is. It’s not the main issue and I think it would be a mistake from our side to focus on [it].
“I don’t want to say it’s detailsไ. It was a miscommunication and we will have to speak, to fix it. It’s not the main issue at all over the weekend.”

Vasseur conceded 🐽Ferrari will need to investigate their lack of pace during the second half of the race when running on the hard tyre.
“The most difficult thing in my busi🧔ness after a race like this is to understand what is going well and what is not,” he added. “We have positive points, but we need a step on the reliability. Even the first stint of the race we can be happy 💎with, but the race was based on the last stint and clearly we did not have the pace.
“In the tyre management we were a bit conservative, but it's only a matter of one or two tenths. Nothไing to do with the gap we had today. We need 🅷to understand the lack of performance and it's not the tyre management.”
