MONACO GRAND PRIX 2021 QUALIFYING
THE PREVIOUS DAY, IN QUALIFYING, CHARLES LECLERC WAS ON POLE, AND THINGS TOOK AN UNEXPECTED TURN
WHEN HE CRASHED INTO THE BARRIER. (LUCKILY ESCAPING UNHURT.)
IN A TENSE “WILL HE, WON’T HE” PERIOD OF AMBIGUITY FOR CHARLES LECLERCÂ THE “WILL HE” MEANING “WILL HE” BE STARTING ON POLE POSTITION” AND THE “WON’T HE” BECAUSE HIS CRASH MAY HAVE RESULTED IN IRREPERABLE DAMAGE TO HIS GEARBOX,
IT MUST HAVE MEANT A SLEEPLESS NIGHT FOR CHARLES
AS IT TURNED OUT – HE WOULDN’T!!
THE MOMENT CHARLES LECLERC REALISES HE WOULDN’T BE RACING IN THE MONACO GRAND PRIX 2021 (BELOW)
AS, WHILST TAKING HIS FERRARI OUT FOR A TEST-RUN BEFORE THE RACE, HE NOTICED A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR, WHICH MEANT THAT HE WAS, IN FACT, UNABLE TO RACE AT ALL!
