Mattia Binotto blames Charles Leclerc for costly crash

Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto has confirmed that the throttle issues Charles Leclerc reported after his crash in France had nothing to do with his mistake. Having started on pole, Leclerc fended off Max Verstappen in the opening laps before the Dutchman pitted, and the Scuderia were aiming to extend their drivers’ stint.
