The Ferrari boss’s highlighter focuses on the start of the GP: “It wasn’t the best start for Carlos. Perez’s episode caused him to lose two positions. He too was unlucky with the Safety Car because he had returned the lap before. The race was conditioned by the positions on the track, it wasn’t easy to overtake. But the pace was exceptional also for Carlos.”
