Charles Leclerc said he will fight as much as he can to win Sunday’s Emilia Romagna Grand Prix in Ferrari’s Italian heartland but warned he cannot perform miracles.
\nSpeaking after qualifying 11th on the grid, one place ahead of team-mate and seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, the Monegasque driver admitted that his car lacked pace and potential, AFP reported.<\/p>\n
While Oscar Piastri maintained his consistent demonstration of speed by claiming his third pole of the year ahead of four-time champion Max Verstappen of Red Bull, the Ferraris labored and were pushed out of the top ten by both Aston Martins.<\/p>\n
“You can always do more with a lap and improve a few things,” said Leclerc. “But we are just P-nowhere. There’s not enough performance in the car and I keep repeating myself.<\/p>\n
“There’s not the potential that I would hope for in the car at the moment and we need to be better.”<\/p>\n
Leclerc claimed Ferrari’s sole podium earlier this year but has been unable to sustain a challenge while Hamilton, the team’s marquee signing, has failed to adapt and shine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
