Why Leclerc must learn to curb his overconfidence in F1 title fight

Charles Leclerc was too determined in his chase of Sergio Perez as he tried to turn a definite third place into a possible second at Imola. In pursuit of the Red Bull driver, he nibbled too much inside kerb at the Variante Alta chicane. That spat his Ferrari off, the car escaping from underneath him to spin into the tyre wall. Fortunately, the impact was side on, and he sustained front wing damage rather than terminally buckled suspension.

It was a minor error of judgement, but an error nonetheless - something that comes with the territory of a driver racing with the bit between their teeth and ultimately pushing too hard. It was both an easy mistake to make and yet still an inexcusable one.
