anyways charles did all that he could. one of the great examples of how good he is with tyre management, going from p8 to p4 with only one pitstop. unfortunately, not the podium he deserved but he should get all the praise for this race, where he maximized everything.
for me, nothing can take away from the brilliance of Leclerc’s drive this race, his tyre management has been pure brilliance, he is a joy to watch, incredible communication with the team, I can’t wait to see the data on this one it is going to be delicious, my beloved driver
I know Charles Leclerc had one moment at the end of his stint but his long opening stint on mediums here at Suzuka might be one of the best tyre management performances of his career.
Crazy how he got them that far while still maintaining solid laptimes.
