Charles Leclerc forced to manage “horrible” brake issue for “entire” Bahrain GP
Charles Leclerc has shed li🐠ght on the brake 𝓡issue which hampered his performance at the Bahrain Grand Prix.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc has revealed that the brake issue that plagued him in the early phase of the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix affe🐠cted him𝓀 for the “entire” 57 laps.
After qualifying second, Leclerc looked set for a strong start to 2024 as he challenged Max Verstappen for the race l🌟ead into Turn 1.
Soon after, Leclerc lost out to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell before slipping behind Sergio Perez and teammate168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Carlos Sainz.
Leclerc ran wide, off the track, on six occasions in the op𝔉ening 10 laps, struggling with lock ups.
It soon transpired that Leclerc had a brake-relat⛦ed issue which hurt his pace.
Reflecting on it, Leclerc said: “I couldn’t go ar꧟ound Turn 9, 10 for the first ten laps even though I was having crazy br𒉰ake balance to the rear,” he said. “I would lock every lap and I was making big changes.
“It’s been a very, very frustrating race because I was waiting for this race for a long time. I wanted to show what we were capable of and at the end we cannot show anything on my side because we were c♋ompletely out of place with brake balance and the car in general wasn’t where I wanted it to♈ be.
“We will have to analyse what went wrong in order to🥃 stop all these issues from happening.”

Despite a better second half of t༺he race, ♓where he overtook Russell on track for fourth, the brake issue persisted.
“I was managing the entire time,” h𒀰e added. “There was no moment where in the first 10 💛laps it got much worse every lap. That’s why I did so many mistakes.
“I was always trying to anticip🔴at🤡e the brakes but whenever I was the issue was bigger, locking up again.
“After 10 laps it stabiജlised so at least I knew there was an issue and I knew what to expect but it still felt horribl♊e.”
