The qualifying in Miami brought a few surprises – Max Verstappen’s second starting position, the absence of the McLarens in the top three – but Charles Leclerc’s third starting position is not one of them. The Monegasque is therefore satisfied after the qualifying session. “It was on the limit,” said Leclerc.

Charles Leclerc drives himself from a third place in the sprint race to a third position in qualifying for the race in Miami. “It was on the limit. At the end of the day, we just weren’t fast enough. We brought big updates, which helped us. We improved a bit, but it was a difficult qualifying due to the wind,” Leclerc says in the paddock.
