'Yeah, but sometimes you are wrong.'
Ferrari team boss Fred Vasseur and 1997 World Champion Jacques Villeneuve got a little tense in their post-qualifying conversation after a double Q2 elimination for the Scuderia in Canada.went into qualifying with work to do after a final hour of practice which saw Charles Leclerc their highest finisher in P10, but with the track grip and pecking order continuing to evolve, while the threat of rain lingered, the battle for pole was wide open.
The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve had been resurfaced ahead of the 2024 Canadian Grand Prix, so Villeneuve asked Vasseur whether this new asphalt or the track temperatures could have contributed to Ferrari’s Q2 exit?“I think the conditions are a bit extreme with the drops and so and the cold conditions and it’s really difficult to switch on, but it’s not an excuse at all.
Having been on pole for his home race last time out in Monaco, Leclerc will line-up P11 for the Canadian GP and Sainz P12, though all hope is certainly not lost for Ferrari, considering rain is once more in the forecast for Sunday’s Grand Prix.
