夏尔·勒克莱尔解释说，他能够在F1荷兰大奖赛冲刺赛中超越兰多·诺里斯获得第二名，靠的是不同的能量部署策略。
由于冲刺赛赛制，各车队几乎没有时间微调他们的能量管理设置，在排位赛首轮开始前只有一节自由练习。
勒克莱尔认为，他的迈凯伦对手在主直道上缺乏电量输出，是他在第18圈1号弯得以完成超越、升至第二名的关键因素。
“兰多在主直道上相当慢，”这位法拉利车手说，“他的电量输出不如我。所以我知道在前两圈之后那里会有机会。”
最终，勒克莱尔在比赛结束时将领先诺里斯的差距拉开到四秒，但未能对乔治·拉塞尔构成挑战，在格子旗挥动时落后1.360秒。
当被问及是否认为自己也能超过那辆梅赛德斯时，这位摩纳哥车手回答说：“嗯，我相信有可能。但两三圈之后他开始更加用力地推进，我就知道要超过去会很困难。
“我看到乔治（George）在主直道上采用了不同的能量部署方式，这意味着对我来说想要超车始终会非常困难，即使我已经贴得很近了。”
对于迈凯伦来说，能量管理根本不是他们最担心的问题，因为MCL40赛车在低速弯道中表现挣扎，进而导致轮胎衰减严重——这也是为什么勒克莱尔（Leclerc）尽管使用的是较软的轮胎，诺里斯（Norris）在比赛后段仍未能挡住他的另一个原因。
此外，车手们预计部署策略将会趋于一致，因为各车队会在正式排位赛（届时将进入封闭停车区状态）和正赛之前再次对赛车进行调整。
“在像今年这样有新赛车的年份，这肯定是一个很大的差异化因素，我们今天也看到了。我认为在赞德福特这里几乎不可能超车。如果各车队之间没有不同的功率输出策略，我根本不可能完成那次超车，”勒克莱尔说，他对诺里斯的超越是前15名车手中发生的唯一一次超越。
“不过，到了周日，我们似乎都会趋同到一个比较接近的状态。所以我不指望明天会有很大的差异。
“而且纵观整个赛季，前两三场比赛我们看到到处都有不少缠斗，因为我认为当时大家都不太确定正确的做法是什么。现在，大家似乎又或多或少地趋同了。”
“是的，我想从明天开始大家都会趋同，”冲刺赛冠军乔治·拉塞尔表示赞同。“而且在你获得轮胎优势之前，超车可能会比较困难。”

The key to Charles Leclerc overtaking a “quite slow” Lando Norris
Energy deployment was crucial in Leclerc’s successful bid for second place in the Zandvoort F1 sprint

Charles Leclerc explained he was able to overtake Lando Norris for second place in Formula 1’s Dutch Grand Prix sprint race courtesy of different deployment strategies.
Teams had little time to fine-tune their energy management set-ups due to the sprint format, with just one free practice session ahead of the opening round of qualifying.
Leclerc believes his McLaren counterpart’s lack of deployment on the main straight was instrumental in facilitating his move for second place in Turn 1 on lap 18.
“Lando on the main straight was quite slow,” the Ferrari driver said. “He didn't have the deployment that I had. So, I knew there was an opportunity there after the first two laps.”
Leclerc eventually pulled away from Norris by four seconds at the end of the race, but failed to mount a challenge to George Russell, ending up 1.360s down under the chequered flag.
Asked if he thought he could pass the Mercedes too, the Monegasque replied: “Well, I believed in it. But after two or three laps he started to push a little bit more and I knew it was going to be difficult.
“I saw that George had a different kind of deployment on the main straight, which meant that it was always going to be very difficult for me to get past, even if I was getting very close.”
Energy management was the least of McLaren’s worries as the MCL40 struggled in low-speed corners and, consequently, with tyre degradation – another reason why Norris failed to hold off Leclerc late on despite the latter running soft rubber.
Furthermore, drivers are expecting deployment strategies to converge as teams tweak their cars again ahead of the main qualifying session, when parc ferme comes into force, and the race.
“Surely it's a big differentiator on a year like this year with these new cars, and we've seen it today. I think here in Zandvoort it's close to impossible to overtake. And I could have never made the overtake if there wasn't a different deployment strategy between teams,” Leclerc said, with his move on Norris the only pass that occurred in the top 15 positions.
“However, we seem to all converge to a kind of similar place coming Sunday. So I don't expect big differences coming tomorrow.
“And also throughout the season, we've seen the first two, three races, there was a lot of action, a bit everywhere, because I think everybody was not so sure about what was the right thing to do. Now, again, everybody seems to converge more or less in the same place.”
“Yeah, I think everyone's going to converge from tomorrow,” sprint winner George Russell concurred. “And it will probably be a bit challenging to overtake until you get that tyre advantage.”
