Charles Leclerc reveals circuits where Ferrari could win after Monza outing
Charles Leclerc has reflected on his outing at the Italian Grand Prix. The Scuderia Ferrari driver also touched on the circuit he believes the Monza-based outfit could clinch victory following the race in Monza.
Leclerc, who started the race at the iconic ‘Temple of Speed’ in fourth place, finished the race in the same position. Leclerc was also involved in some wheel-to-wheel battle with McLaren’s Oscar Piastri – something he appeared to relish.
“It was a nice battle with Oscar (at the start). I felt like I was overtaking when he was making a mistake, and he was overtaking me when I made a mistake,” he said to Sky Sports F1.
“They just had more pace than I did. I tried things that were not in the car, and so I lost the rear multiple times, and that meant I couldn’t hope for much better, unfortunately.”
“I tried, I don’t have any regrets. Unfortunately, the pace in the car was a little bit worse than what we expected.”
Charles Leclerc on where Ferrari can secure race victories
Charles Leclerc also touched on the circuits he believes the Ferrari team could secure possible wins. The Monegasque driver identified a couple of street circuit, which he anticipate could well fit the designs of the SF-25 machinery.
"Singapore, maybe Baku, and Las Vegas are maybe the tracks we are a bit closer to winning a race. But I think we are third favourites - maybe if Red Bull struggles, maybe second but never the first ones, so it will always be quite uphill and difficult."
