Leclerc part good, but he doesn't exaggerate: he prefers not to attack Verstappen immediately, a lesson learned after the Sprint. The Monegasque knows how to wait and in the end he proves to be much more on the ball than Verstappen in the pass and never shows difficulty in overcoming him.

What Haas!
Super race, but one could say super weekend, for the Haas. The American team shines particularly on the obverse, thanks to new updates on the hybrid part.
