After he qualified in sixth for today’s Hungarian Grand Prix, two places behind team mate Carlos Sainz Jnr, Charles Leclerc admitted to being unhappy with the lack of pace from his team in Hungary.
“I’m more frustrated just about the overall lack of performance,” Leclerc said.“I think Carlos have been driving very well this weekend. He finishes P4 which I think is the position of the car really and he did a really good job. I finished P6 a bit behind, not a really clean lap. P5 was possible on my side, but P4 and P5 was the best result we could have hoped as a team. The biggest problem is that we don’t have the pace that we used to have at the beginning of the season.”
After Alexander Rossi was forced out of today’s IndyCar race in Toronto due to injury, McLaren CEO Zak Brown says replacement Theo Pourchaire was the obvious choice to replace him.We thought he was the best driver, simple as that,” Brown told the IndyCar broadcast during yesterday’s qualifying session.
“He did an excellent job driving for us, he knows the team. Obviously we’ve thrown him in the deep end here, learning the new circuit in qualifying. But he’s a pro, we enjoy our time with him
