Leclerc is expecting the usual 'qualifying game' at Monza today despite the reduced effect of towing. F1
The Italian track traditionally sees drivers seeking tows on the straights in qualifying while also trying to create an optimal gap so that the car ahead doesn't compromise their cornering.
"I think for the qualifying game, it probably will be the same, because even if it's less worth it, it's still worth it," he said when asked about slipstreaming by Motorsport.com. "Having said that, I think it will be hugely dependent on whether there's a train of cars with the DRS. In that situation, it will be very, very tricky to overtake. If not, then I think it should be fairly easy.""I think tows in Monza are always going to be an issue," said the Spaniard when asked by Motorsport.com about past qualifying controversies.
