CATCH ME UP
Leclerc said his early battle with teammate Lewis Hamilton was too close before he crashed at the Parabolica in the Italian Grand Prix.
The crash brought out a red flag, and Leclerc climbed out of the car unaided before being declared fine after a medical check.
One report says he suffered a heavy impact into the tyre barriers, while another says he was evaluated at the medical centre and reported temporary vision issues in his right eye.
The race also featured pressure from Oscar Piastri during Leclerc’s early fight, according to one account.
