🗣️ 'I don’t think we have the performance for pole' Charles Leclerc doesn't expect Ferrari to be able to fight for F1 pole at the BahrainGP ⬇️
While Leclerc expected the strong Aston pace to drop off on Saturday, the Monegasque reckoned: “I don’t think we have the performance maybe for pole.
“It’s still early days. I maybe think that Aston is a bit quicker than what they will be tomorrow. We don’t know. It’s just what I think.” Leclerc reckoned his team had “most work to do” in tuning the SF-23 to fix its race pace but said “there’s a bit of margin” to improve. However, he did acknowledge that the car was better-behaved than in pre-season testing last week, when Leclerc was deliberately encumbered with understeer-biased set-ups.“On my side in testing, it’s been very inconsistent in the way we run the car because we were testing a lot of things, so I didn’t have much time with the car to my liking. I did today.”
Sainz, meanwhile, felt the opposite, saying he was much less settled in the car as he found himself “struggling a bit more with the balance”.Only when it was resolved did he think he could put together a competitive qualifying lap.“I'm struggling a bit more with the balance. It's a bit more out of place compared to where it was. But we're having a good look at it. We expect to put it back together for tomorrow.
