But it was a genuine mistake. “What you heard on the radio was about when he was in reverse gear trying to get out from the barriers, there is a strategy without going in all the details, that somehow he was on the throttle, didn’t feel sufficient torque from the engine but was nothing wrong. Simply the strategy there.”Related Hamilton lost “around 3kg” after F1 drinks bottle failed during French Leclerc: I don’t deserve to win F1 title with ‘unacceptable’ mistakes Leclerc explained that he tried to get the car back to the pit lane as it hadn’t sustained too much damage.“I tried, but there was something with the clutch not working and I couldn’t reverse, which was a shame because I saw the car and the car was actually not too damaged,” Leclerc said.“But, this is a detail, honestly. First of all, I need to not put cars in the wall, and then they should work better.””4
