Charles Leclerc & Frederic Vasseur offer differing views on Ferrari’s slipstream strategy

Leclerc could only qualify third at Monza as teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz stormed to pole position.
The Ferrari duo were split by 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen, ⛦who goes into tomorrow’s race in search of his tenth consecutive💦 victory.
Due to Monza’s high-speed nature, drive♓rs often try to position their cars close to rivals to benefit from a slipstream.
Diꦕfferent teams deployed difficult tactics with Verstappen completin☂g his qualifying laps without a tow, while pole sitter Sainz did.
Leclerc didn’t on his final ru♔n, missing out on pole by less thaꦆn a tenth.
The Monegas💝que thought the lack of ♛slipstream cost him “one position at least”
“My feeling can only be amazing wಞith the Ti🔴fosi," he said after qualifying.
“Of course, on my side I'm a bit disappointed. I obviously wanted to be first but seeing tha🍸t Carlos is P1 is great for Ferrari.
“He has done an incredible job all weekend. I've been struggling quite a bit more: FP1, FP2, FP3 and qualifying I managed to put everything togetherꦰ, so I was really 𒈔happy.
“Unfortunately, in Q3 I didn't have a slipstream. That probably cost us 🍷one position at least, but it's life. We should be happy,✱ especially on my side. I've been struggling a lot.”

Despite Leclerc’s compꩵlaint, team boss Frederic Vasseur still believes no slipstream was the better strategy.
“I'm still convinced that without the slipstream it's still bet🃏ter,” he explained.
“For sure, you see the advantage of the slipstream in tꦏhe straight line, but you have the disadvantage. Max was without the sli🔯pstream. It was the right call.”
