Ferrari double on the Austin circuit. Charles Leclerc won the Formula 1 United States GPin front of his teammate Carlos Sainz. Third has arrived Max Verstappen. In reality it was Lando Norris to cross the finish line third, but had to serve a 5-second penalty imposed on him for an incorrect move made when overtaking Verstappen, on turn 12 of the 52nd lap. The British driver from McLaren was thus relegated to fourth place, ahead of his teammate Oscar Piastri. Sesto has arrived George Russell with Mercedes, Red Bull seventh Perez. Hulkenberg, Lawson and Colapinto they closed the Top-10.
«We are happy, we couldn’t dream of anything better. In turn 1 we launched well at the start, I knew we would end up very close at the first turn. Yesterday I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, today I had an extraordinary pace and we managed excellently. Overall we had an excellent pace for the weekend and in the race. I thank the engineers for the updates which have already had their effect from Singapore onwards. The team worked very well, everything worked perfectly. The goal is the title but the road is long.” He said it Charles Leclercof Ferrari, winner of the Austin GP.
“Congratulations to the team and to Charles – adds Sainz – I knew that a large part of the race would be decided at the start. The whole weekend was fast and the position on the track was the key to a good race. It was certainly a step forward because Ferrari’s performances this year made us enjoy. Last year we were on defense, this year on attack.”
