Charles Leclair did not plan to miss Hamilton

      During the Miami race, Lewis Hamilton was unhappy with Ferrari's strategists, who caused him to lose a few laps behind Charles Leclair. As it turned out after the finish, Monegasque did not even think about missing his partner.

      Asked if he had planned to let Lewis go ahead if he hadn't received similar instructions, Charles said: "Not really. I knew that Lewis was on Medium tyres, so closer to the finish he would have more problems with the tyres than me. But I understood that he wanted to try to do something else.

      I appreciate that, and if I were him, I would do the same, because I would also be more aggressive on Medium tires. I have no complaints about Lewis. He, like me, wants to optimize the car and get more out of it, but it's disappointing that the SF-25's potential is what it is now.

      In any case, radio conversations do not always fully provide an idea of the real state of affairs."
