Heh, you could see it right there on Leclerc's face just now as he rolled out of the garage. He gave that little look—you know, what the English would call "putting on a brave face"—that practically screams: these guys are going to be the death of me.
John Ortiz4 said:That specific turn at Indianapolis has been slowed down now—it used to be incredibly fast and honestly pretty terrifying. The track itself is just spectacular, though, running right alongside the river with those houses and fields nearby. I actually made it out to Indianapolis back in 2002.
Raymond Anderson4 said:They really earned it—having their car development and technical feedback handled by a driver who makes you wonder if he even belongs in Formula 1 in the first place.
Hmm, they actually have two drivers like that right now.😬
In all fairness, it isn't entirely on them, but I imagine the upcoming car updates are going to be a massive uphill battle.

Charles Leclerc was absolutely regal out there. Carlos Sainz just did his usual thing, nothing out of the ordinary. George Russell ended up grinding through to finish P7. Alex Albon took P10. And Sergio Perez? Honestly, he’s playing director of the entire universe at this point. As for Valtteri Bottas, I can't help but wonder what he could actually achieve if he were sitting in a truly competitive car.
