Charles Leclerc flew into a rage once the Formula 1 Las Vegas GP was over. After a turbulent test, in which he always rode close to Carlos Sainz, it was finally the Spanish driver who took the podium, while the Monegasque rider had to settle for fourth place. Given this result, ‘Il Predestinato‘He informed the team on the radio of his tremendous anger, because, according to him, “being nice bothers him all the fucking time”.
Leclerc passed Sainz at the startand also tried to overtake Russell in the first laps, although without success. Soon, the tires on car ’16’ collapsed, so the Spaniard regained his position.

Then came the absurdity in the Maranello strategy, which Sainz was called to the pits without the mechanics being preparedwhich forced the Madrid native to carry out a dangerous evasive maneuver.
Once the stops were made correctly, Sainz positioned himself just behind Leclerc, who was informed by his engineer that there would be no fight: “We have told Carlos not to put pressure on you. So just focus on taking care of your tires”to which the Monegasque responded: “Try saying it in Spanish“, once his partner took the position from him.
“Yes, I did my job, but Being nice annoys me all the fucking time. It’s not even being nice, it’s just being respectful.. “I know I have to shut up, but it’s always the same,” he burst out.Il Predestinato‘ after crossing the finish line, being reprimanded from the wall, asking him to shut up so that his words would not get out.
His engineer reaffirmed that “he did the right thing for the team”although Leclerc seems to care little. For his part, Carlos Sainz received encouragement from Jenson Button after the grand prize: “It’s great to see you compete with Charles, I love seeing how they let you fight and it’s real”.
