In terms of pace, we are very close to Mercedes. I don't know how everything will look in the conditions of a race, but Red Bull and McLaren, unfortunately, are much faster than us at the moment,”, quoted Leclerc Speed ​​​​​​​​Week.

Charles Leclerc took sixth place in qualifying, his teammate Carlos Sainz was fourth. The first two lines are respectively occupied by the pilots of “McLaren” Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. Max Verstappen from “Red Bull” took third place.
