Charles Leclerc has taken Pole position in Monaco and Baku as Ferrari (NYSE:RACE) enjoyed a welcomed upturn in performance.
Ferrari has performed well in the low-speed corners throughout the season, the the Paul Ricard Circuit consists of predominantly medium-speed corners.
Mr. Leclerc expects Ferrari to “struggle” relatively to the prior 2 races.
“I think it will be a bit back to reality,” Mr. Leclerc said. “That’s been two weekends, in Monaco we didn’t expect to be as competitive, in Baku we definitely didn’t expect it and we expected to be back to reality in Baku but actually I feel like this weekend is unfortunately will be the weekend where we will be back to reality and we will be struggling a bit more compared to the last two weekend.
“There is a bit more medium speed corners there, it’s a bit more of a normal track. I expect to struggle a bit more this weekend.”
Ferrari is The Aristocrat of the automotive sector.
