Despite fears from fans, the Las Vegas Grand Prix delivered. Max Verstappen hit the jackpot once again, but what happened behind him stole the headlines. A last-lap charge from Charles Leclerc saw him pip Sergio Perez to second place, but it could have been more for Ferrari.
Carlos Sainz’s incredibly harsh penalty saw him demoted to twelfth despite an impressive qualifying, with the Spaniard forced to fight his way through the grid. This week’s F1 Manager 2023 Race Moment presents an alternative Las Vegas Grand Prix for Ferrari.
Everything On Red Race Moment out now
After a shocking performance in Brazil, crashing even before the race began, Charles Leclerc bounced back in style in Las Vegas. Taking pole position for the race, before dropping back behind Max Verstappen on Turn 1, Leclerc showed great racecraft to send it on Checo heading into the final corners of the race to snatch second.
For Carlos Sainz, it was a slightly different story. His unfortunate meeting with a drain cover brought FP1 to a halt after only eight minutes, with a harsh 10-place grid penalty handed down for the new power unit required in his car.
Sainz recovered to finish sixth, but it could have been so much more. Spinning on the opening corner, Sainz then struggled to fight his way back through the pack.
Everything On Red puts players in the Ferrari hot seat, with Leclerc battling for the lead whilst Sainz recovers from his spin. It’s down to you to put it all on red and take Ferrari into the podium places.
The official description for Everything On Red is as follows:
“It's time for Ferrari to play their hand in the Las Vegas Grand Prix! Leclerc races for the lead while Sainz fights through the pack after an early spin. Will you go all in and call Red Bull's bluff to deliver a dazzling result for the Scuderia?”
