168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc is hoping he can put 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen “under pressure” during the Miami Grand Prix after the Red Bull driver complained about the handling of his F1 car.

Leclerc will onc🐟e again start alongside the Red Bull driver on the front row of the grid.

The Monegasque finished just over three seconds behind Verstappen in the shorter s🧸p🍎rint race on Saturday morning.

With Verstappen “unhappy” with the handling of his RB20 in Mi൲ami, Leclerc has his eyes on the reigning world champion.

“He’s very strong. This morning we were close. This morning he was saying he wasn’t happy with 𝓰the car so let’s see how hap☂py he is with the car tomorrow.

“Hopefully he will still be unhappy and we put hi✤m under pressure.

“We did some steps forward tℱhis morning, they did too. If we get the DRS after the first lap I think we can maybe st𓂃ay with him.”

Leclerc believes staying within DRS range of Verstappen will be crucial to have any chance of chaꩲllenging him for the victory.

Leclerc added: "Y😼eah this and keeping the DRS, if 🅷we don't get past by turn one," explained Leclerc.

"DRS is s꧑uper powerful here and if we lose it after the first lap tꦚhen it's always difficult to come back within DRS, we must not lose it.

"But first of all, there will be the start, this morning we had a good one and tomorrow𓂃 I will try to have an even better one."

After struggling for qualifying form in 20﷽24, Leclerc appeared to be back to his very best in Miami.

He’s qualified second in both se🍨ssions, ♍and that was after missing the majority of FP1 following a clumsy spin.

Leclerc was pleased with his recovery despite tr🍷ack conditions in Miami making it challenging for the drivers.

“I am happy. It’s been not the idea꧙l start of the weeken♊d,” he explained. “As I said, especially with such a small mistake. It had big consequences on that first free practice and only one lap wasn’t ideal. We had a good weekend after that. That’s good. Today was positive.

“Second this morning, second this afternoon. It was extremely tricky, not just for us but everybody. That second s♊ector was really difficult to understand, very difficult to expect what kind of grip we will get into Turn 11. It made it very difficult to put the lap together.”
