F1, Leclerc in the front row in Montecarlo but the Mc Laren remain the favorites

Charles mocked by Norris who conquers pole-post. The reds have returned competitive and on the Monegasque circuit leave in front is fundamental. Hamilton is also good who conquered the second row alongside Piastri

He only had pole position in his head Charles Leclerche chased it in all the test sessions and lost it for a tenth on the last lap mocked by the MC Laren of Lando Norris.

Saturday of the Ferrari to Montecarlo It has a sweetamaro taste, because the reds this time show that Friday’s signals did not lead and that they are competitive like the Mc Laren. Attached to the orange machines of Norris and Piastri but at the end of the hour that applies to the starting grid a step back. This is why Leclerc has a long muzzle, the only placement that he was interested in doing was first to arrive. He did not succeed, but starting from the front row in Montecarlo is still a nice advantage and if we think that only a week ago in Imola, in the home Grand Prix, the Ferraris had even been excluded from the Q3, well then we can say that the world has reversed and hypothesize that Leclerc will do the encore tomorrow in the circuit where he won last year is not madness.

The confirmation that the machine has given positive responses also comes from the fourth time obtained from Lewis Hamilton which will allow English to leave in the second row alongside the other MC Laren led by Oscar Plastri. Fifth with a little disappointment Max Verstappenbut never say the final verdict in Montecarlo for granted, the more this year in which a regulatory novelty was introduced that obliges the pilots to make at least two stops in the pits. Someone hypothesizes that those who start from the rear will stop on the first lap to then have the free track, we will see.

Leclerc seemed a little demoralized: “I couldn’t do more”. In fact, Charles’ tour was fantastic and the pole would have been a miracle because it is evident to everyone that MC Laren is faster in every circuit. For tomorrow’s race the Ferrari Team Principal Vasseur It is not unbalanced: “In Munich the strategy is always a gamble, I think it will be a lottery”. And then on the disappointment of Leclerc: “I know Charles, I know how perfectionist he is and I would have surprised myself if he had been happy after looking for all the sessions to get the best time”.
