F1 GP Baku: Perez first surprises Leclerc

“Put your elbows out” I talked to him on the radio ‘Czech’ Perez Your engineer.He started second late LeclercIn the best condition Red bullRight in front of the champion Max Verstappen. After listening all week, he heard that his boss saw him as a candidate for the title like a Dutchman. And all this, after updating for two years and winning in Monaco.One of his favorite circuits he has already won in 2021, “Czech Republic” wanted to show it Helmut Marko and Chris Horner They weren’t wrong. It’s time to hit Machada. There is nothing to be a servant. There is nothing to protect. He had to attack, and the Mexican did it in the first corner, as the driver who wants to go for the title should.

The “Czech Republic” never thought again, went inside Turn 1 and overtook Charles Leclerc, who allowed him from pole position again. On the outside, Monaco came out worse than Red Bull and braked too much. He had Max right behind him and Charles’ bad start also hurt the Dutch. He saw Leclerc in front of him, “Czech Republic” on the left and a wall on the right, so there was not enough space to pass. ..

Leclerc won only 4 of the 14 races that started from the pole. And of the five pole positions achieved by the sixth of the Bak GP in 2022, he won only in Bahrain and Australia. In Monaco, he had already missed a clear victory because the team’s strategy was poor and there was no decision. This Sunday, Charles failed at the start.

For that part, it was calm behind the start. Sainz maintained fourth place despite attacking Max several times on lap 1. But without DRS on the opening lap, the Spaniards couldn’t attack the champion with a long baku straight.

On the other hand, Alonso started from 10th place and couldn’t repeat the great start from last year. Despite the ever-dangerous attack on Tsunoda, he maintained his position.

Due to the high temperatures, everyone chose to start with medium tires, with the exception of Ricardo, Ocon, Bottas, Stroll and Mick Schumacher. This prevented us from seeing more overtaking, as the variety of elections was not that great.
