Charles Leclerc: 'I was not going to win the world championship'

to speeding in the pit lane and getting a five-second penalty, the Monegasque could only finish in P6.The end of the battle?

At the end of the summer break, Leclerc notes that he “still believed in the title.” But following the performance deficit Ferrari had to Red Bull at Spa, Leclerc’s opinion changed drastically. The Ferrari driver said: “Then we saw that gap in performance between us and Red Bull at Spa, a gap we had never seen in the first part of the year, so I knew it was going to be very difficult.”

He continued, “after the Belgian Grand Prix, I realised that I was not going to win the world championship.” To highlight Red Bull’s dominance, Verstappen started P14 and went on to win the race by 17 seconds. Whereas Leclerc, who started right behind the Dutchman in P15, could only achieve P6. Was the Belgian Grand Prix the first true indicator that the title fight was over?Although Leclerc does not “want to speak too much about the championship,” because he’s “not really focusing on that.” The five-time race winner will discuss the team’s performance in 2022.
