Charles Leclerc was only a fraction of a second away from regaining pole position. In the short race, the Monegasque couldn't get the win either, after Max Verstappen immediately disappeared at the start.
"It was complicated. We were accelerating, but at the start, we tried to save the tires," explained the Ferrari driver his strategy for the short race.
There was only one surprise for Leclerc early in the race. "Then I had a little fight with Carlos (Sainz). At the end I could only start accelerating and get a little closer, but it was very close between us. But tomorrow is the race and hopefully we can have as good a start as today and put more pressure on Max," he commented.
If the fight with Carlos Sainz didn't help Charles Leclerc, then what will it be like tomorrow at the Austrian Grand Prix? "I hope we can work well together tomorrow," he concluded.
