There is a radical change of setup behind Leclerc’s front row

A great front row Nice performance by Charles Leclerc in Qualifying for the Formula 1 British Grand Prix, with the Monegasque bringing his Ferrari to the front row.
Leclerc stopped the clock at 1’28.287, 175 thousandths away from Andrea Kimi Antonelli’s pole position. The driver from Monte Carlo preceded his teammate Lewis Hamilton by 0.172. Leclerc’s secret: the set-up change At the end of a Sprint in which he seemed rather dissatisfied, Charles Leclerc seemed determined to make a rather important set-up change, as he had suggested to Canal+: “I have in mind to make a rather radical change: it is a rather significant change that I will implement for qualifying, but I am quite confident that it can lead to positive results. And if so, I think it is something that we can apply on all the circuits. So I continue to work: it takes time, but I’m giving it my all.” At the end of qualifying he confirmed the good sensations: “I’m satisfied, I’ve come back from some difficult races where I struggled to have the right feeling. It’s nice to be back, today is the first time I’ve fully found the feeling and it’s positive. It’s a good step in the right direction. At the moment we’re looking at everything – from the driving style to the rest, I haven’t had the pace recently. I’m happy with P2.”
