Charles Leclerc opens up on disappointing home Grand Prix

Charles Leclerc opens up on "disappointing" home Grand Prix

01-06-2019 08:07

Charles Leclerc is yet to finish a Formula 1 race at his home Grand Prix of Monaco and he has not had much success at the track in the past either. The Ferrari driver has revealed that he has yet to finish a single race around the track as he did not have much success during his time in Formula 2 there either. Leclerc will hope that his luck changes in the future and that he can get a race win at the iconic race.  

"Unfortunately I didn’t end this race either," Leclerc said to RaceFans."I think since I came here I never ended a race at my home Grand Prix race. [Two] races during Formula 2 I stopped, last year I stopped, this year I stopped. It’s a shame.

"It’s very disappointing but obviously 15th was not our starting position today. I tried, I knew I had to take risks and unfortunately, we ended the race with a crash in Rascasse. But before that, it was still a fun race for me doing some overtaking."

Leclerc has struggled for luck so far this season which hasn't been helped by Ferrari's inability to put him on the right strategy. He will hope that things will change for the upcoming races.
