Ferrari under-estimated rivals pace at Imola, says Leclerc

Ferrari's Monegasque driver Charles Leclerc drives during the third practice session at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari race track in Imola , Italy, on May 18, 2024, ahead of the Formula One Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. — AFP pic IMOLA , May 19 — Charles Leclerc suggested that Ferrari may have under-estimated the hidden potential of rivals McLaren and Red Bull after slipping from pace-setters to fourth and fifth in Saturday’s qualifying for Sunday’s Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.

“Tomorrow, we will focus on maximising the result, but for us the target remains to win for sure. The car is definitely good in terms of race pace.“But, this is one of the most difficult tracks to overtake on and, also, I don’t quite understand why the DRS zone is shorter this year, which is going to make overtakes a bit more difficult.

Team-mate Carlos Sainz, winner of the Australian Grand Prix earlier this year, said he thought McLaren’s pace was superior at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari. “They just were not putting a lap together, but we knew coming to qualifying they were going to be difficult to beat.
