Hello everyone, welcome to our channel. We are going to listen to Fred Vasseur. Let's listen to him.
Well Fred, second and fourth. Let's talk about Charles. It was so close,
it could easily have been a pole. I'm not sure that easily is the right word.
He led every session up to this point. Yeah, he was not far away.
Strategy on the tyres was a bit different on the McLaren side.
I think it was a good session from Charles. It's the first time I think that we are putting
everything together and we finished the session with a good feeling, at least on the job that we
did. And now let's be focused on tomorrow. We know that it will be a challenge, but it will be
two against two. And a good recovery from Lewis as well today. Yeah, he had a
crash this morning that we had to change the gearbox, air suspension, front suspension and
honestly at 2pm I was not even sure to be part of the Q1. It means that
I think it's a good recovery from everybody. If you can Fred, I know you're a technical man,
I'm not. Explain to me how Charles can come here saying, you know, the kart historically hasn't
gone well in slow speed corners and then suddenly, you know, also you can be out in Q2 in Imola and
now you can be ready for the pole here. How is this possible? Yeah, but I don't want to go deep
in detail, but I don't think that it's the same slow corner and the same characteristic of the
track, the same bottoming, the same top speed, everything is different. And I think in this
situation also Charles is a bit magic. Okay, that explains. Thank you. Yeah, it was a very good
question from the TED, like what's happening to the Ferrari. I think everyone wants to know this
answer for this question. It was interesting to be out of Q2 at Imola and to fight here
for the pole position. Also, they have one more plus with Charles Leclerc. He was absolutely
dominating every single session, but at the qualifying, like
Norris had a bigger magic. It will be interesting to see the fight, the strategy fight between the
Ferraris and McLarens tomorrow, but we'll see. We'll see what will happen. Just don't forget
