Shocking Crash: Leclerc Wrecks Ferrari Moments Before Miami F1 Sprint Showdown

Formula 1 fans were left in shock as Charles Leclerc crashed out just before the highly anticipated Miami Grand Prix sprint race was set to begin. The Ferrari driver lost control of his car during reconnaissance laps in treacherous wet conditions, slamming into the trackside wall.

Leclerc, who had opted for intermediate tires on his Ferrari, encountered standing water on the track, leading to a loss of grip and sending him careening into the barriers. The impact caused significant damage to the right side of his car, forcing him to abandon his attempt to return to the pits.

The incident not only dashed Leclerc’s hopes of starting the race from sixth position but also drew criticism from his teammate Lewis Hamilton. The seven-time world champion voiced his concerns over Ferrari’s tire choice in the challenging weather conditions, questioning the decision to use intermediates instead of full wet tires.

As rain continued to pour down on the circuit, making track conditions extremely precarious, the rest of the drivers opted for full wet tires during their reconnaissance laps. The unexpected downpour during the F1 Academy qualifying session further added to the chaos, setting the stage for a thrilling and unpredictable sprint race scheduled to kick off at 12:00 pm local time.

The dramatic turn of events in Miami has once again highlighted the unpredictable nature of Formula 1 racing and the pivotal role that weather conditions can play in shaping the outcome of a Grand Prix. Fans around the world are now eagerly awaiting the start of the sprint race, wondering what other surprises the Miami Grand Prix has in store.
