--A frustrated-looking Leclerc and a pair of marshals inspected the damage before chatting with Ickx. Leclerc was recorded saying: “I lost the brakes. I lost the brakes! “I braked, the pedal was hard, and it went to the floor.--
It did look very odd. Considering how relatively clean the gentlemen drivers all have been it looks most likely to be some sort of mechanical failure. That said, Leclerc isn't the strongest mentally, and given his history of errors in Monaco/street circuits I hope he doesn't dwell on it too much.
Clearly Leclerc "slept", was too fast, didn't really pay attention. Compare with Jacky Ickx who was racing the fabulous 312 B2. He is a master. CL not. Marcel Massini
