Pierre Gasly told Charles Leclerc "please win this race for Anthoine Hubert"

Pierre Gasly wanted Charles Leclerc to win the Belgian Grand Prix for Anthoine Hubert. The drivers were all friends and have grown up in motorsport together and it seems fitting that it was Leclerc who won the race in tribute to Hubert.

"You lose one your best mates, I’ve grown up [with Anthoine] since I was seven in karting, we’ve been roommates, we’ve lived in the same apartment, in the same room, for six years," Gasly said to Motorsportweek.com.

Gasly had hoped that Leclerc would win the race in memory of their close friend.
