Charles Leclerc raced well the final lap. His teammate Sebastian Vettel knocked him off the podium due to a mistake.

Leclerc had a hard time after the race. He seemed so close to the podium, his race was almost perfect up to that point. Nobody expected that after yesterday's bad qualifying. Things went wrong in the last three corners.

"We were extremely fast there"

“I am so disappointed, there is not much more I want to say now. The start was tough, but the middle of the race was incredible. There we were extremely fast. Then I hoped I could reward that with a podium, but I screwed it up in the last three corners. So now there is only disappointment in my head."

“But when I look at the team we have a third and fourth place, which is good of course. Especially compared to yesterday. It's also the first podium for Seb, so I'm happy for him even though it's hard to be happy at the moment. It is good for him because he has had a very difficult season. He has proven his worth as a driver today. But I am especially very angry with myself now," he told Ziggo Sport.
