Leclerc opens up his frustration what ‘might come off as funny’

The Ferrari driver eventually finished in P14, while his teammate, Lewis Hamilton, just missed out on a podium finish at the rainy Silverstone Circuit.

Already by Saturday there was a visibly frustrated Leclerc, as after making a mistake in Q3, he began punching his steering wheel.

"I've had my moments on the radio," he began to GPblog among others.

"Yeah, probably from outside [it’s very funny], but yes, at least for me, of course, frustration runs high, especially when you're passionate and you want to do well. Yes, sometimes you regret things that you say on the radio, but that's the way it is with the heat of the moment that happens. It's like that," he explained.

According to the Monegasque driver, this season Ferrari could perform better on Sundays, therefore it's extra disappointing to have a result like that.

Ferrari did some testing over the current week. Looking ahead to Spa and the Belgian Grand Prix, Leclerc added: "I know that everybody's pushing very hard production-wise to try and give us upgrades as soon as possible if they are here. I hope it can help us to do a significant step forward."
