Charles Leclerc said he raced with Ferrari’s latest power-unit specification at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, answering a question Ferrari had left open before the event. Asked in a Sky Italy interview after the race whether his car had the ADUO-1 or newer ADUO-2 unit, he replied that it had the “latest specification” — pointing to ADUO-2. [1] [2]
A Ferrari press officer beside him shook her head during the exchange. Leclerc then wondered aloud whether he should have said it, adding that he had thought the information was already known. RacingNews365 describes the answer as revealing a “secret”; SportMediaset instead focuses on why Ferrari’s choice for Baku had been uncertain. [2] [3]
SportMediaset reports that the ADUO-2 unit had been used at Monza, then sent for checks after Leclerc’s crash and not fitted for the following Madrid Grand Prix. It says Leclerc had indicated before Baku that the unit was available again, although Ferrari would not say which specification it would use. [2]
