Moreover, due to the excessive consumption of ERS power, after exiting T14, Leclerc was overtaken once on the inside line by Hamilton behind him.
Fortunately, T15 is a high-speed corner that doesn't require slowing down, so defending wasn't too difficult for Leclerc.
After one failed attack attempt, Leclerc abandoned the idea of continuing to attack Qin Miao.
There was no way, the speed gap between Mercedes and Ferrari was too large, and as a friend of Qin Miao, Leclerc was well aware of how extraordinary Qin Miao's defensive abilities were.
When playing on the simulator, unless Qin Miao eased up, Leclerc really couldn't overtake Qin Miao successfully.
And he also had to focus on defending against Hamilton behind him, so that previous attempt was Leclerc's first, and only reckless move of this race.
However, Leclerc's attack did serve as a reminder to Qin Miao that although Ferrari is having a laid-back season, Leclerc still posed some threat.
