“I don’t let the last two races change our expectations,” he said. “We are in a difficult moment for the team. We are struggling a little bit with pace at the moment. “I wouldn’t say the feeling is that we must do better,” Leclerc said. “However, there’s definitely a huge motivation because it’s not only a normal weekend that starts from the Thursday to the Sunday, but it starts already from Monday in Maranello where we have so many tifosi , and that obviously motivates everybody.
“They’ve changed the kerbs,” Red Bull’s Daniel Ricciardo said on Thursday after inspecting the new look by bicycle. “I went around the track this morning. I can’t say I’m that impressed because some elements have lost some of the character of the circuit.
