Charles Leclerc: Strong Performance in Austin
Leclerc finished third in the United States Grand Prix Formula 1 race at Circuit of the Americas on Sunday afternoon.
Analysis:
Leclerc would start the grand prix on soft tyres and take full advantage of that grip early in the race. He'd get around Lando Norris at the start and claim P2 right after the lights out. The Ferrari star would hold that spot down until Norris would take the spot back on lap 21. The rest of the event would be a duel between the two and see Leclerc once again occupy P2 late before Norris would retake the position down the stretch. Leclerc would end up grabbing third and his sixth podium of the season.
