Charles Leclerc: Victory Hopes Fade
Leclerc finished fourth in the Las Vegas Grand Prix Formula 1 race at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit on Saturday night.
Analysis:
After vaulting two spots on the opening lap, Leclerc would soon challenge George Russell for the early lead. However, his aggressive driving would use up his tyres in those heated laps. The Ferrari star would have to fall back and use some tyre conservation to get to the first pit stop. He would spend a majority of his time in P5 after his second pit stop, but a late overtake of Max Verstappen would give him a rather disappointing P4 after his early challenge for the lead.
