‘why wasn’t charles happy with p2’
dude i don’t know ask mr. ‘i don't smile very often when i'm p3’. maybe it has something to do with him being a professional athlete but I’m not sure

New brakes due to the system only suiting one driver, two DNFs that were mechanical and a couple of real low points with the spin in Miami and crash at Monza. One four race period is really the only downside on this season

You have no idea how happy I am that the real Charles is back. The confident Charles, the Charles who makes no mistakes when he feels confident in the car. The consistent Charles. And despite suffering two DNFs due to reliability issues, he is still fighting for P2 in the championship.
Honestly, a lot of people talk about his performances, but Charles’s season is so underrated. People only look at the results, and they’re right to do so, but you also have to look at the way he’s been performing. Charles is having a very strong season. The way he has worked day after day, week after week, month after month, trying to adapt to these new regulations. He even had to change his brakes, and he’s still managing to perform at an incredibly high level.
So many people doubted him when things weren’t going well, but he stayed focused in his own little bubble. While everyone was criticising him, he stayed silent and kept working to find solutions. Everyone thought he would never be able to bounce back with the CI discs, and some even said that if Rosberg couldn’t do it, why would Charles be able to?
And yet, we all know how important Brembo discs are to Charles. Those discs and brakes are part of Charles’s DNA. And despite being forced to change his brakes, he still managed to win straight away. The number of hours he spends at Maranello in the simulator or working with the engineers is just insane. The difficulties he faced from Canada to Silverstone have transformed him as a driver. He has learned so much from that, even though he didn't deserve to go through it.
His season, in terms of maturity, talent and leadership, has been simply incredible. As always. And it’s not over yet!!!

vicky piria: “what i like about charles is that, even when you tell him he has an engine deficit, he always says he believes in it, that he can do it. i like this tenacity a lot, he’s always been like this.”

Another big late-race charge for @Charles_Leclerc! First, he sets the #DHL Fastest Lap, then snatches P2 from Max Verstappen.

viaplay made charles rewatch the start and narrate it 😭
"with lewis, i forgot about that! lewis on the right was very, very tight. then i had a bit less power, then went round the outside using a bit of boost. and then i knew it was the last one that would lift that would get the position (giggles).
no, but i knew it would be tight. max is an animal on track and i feel like, sometimes when i close the visor, i can be that as well and that's why it's exciting. i know he's not gonna leave me much space and the same i would do for him"
