How Ferrari Can Still Finish Third In The Championship

Leclerc started off by explaining how finishing third is still their target

“Well that’s definitely the target, but realistically I think it’s going to be very, very difficult. I believe it will probably depend on how good [the] work we do [is] but also how consistent they [our rivals] will be in the next three weekends”

He then added how they have been competitive in Bahrain in the past

“Yeah, we were very competitive but I think in the past Ferrari have also been very competitive here so hopefully we can have a good weekend”

He then laid out what needs to happen for them to achieve their targets to sum up his words

“We need to have three perfect weekends, so we need to focus on ourselves and see whether we can make it or not”

F1’s managing director Ross Brawn is “very sorry that” they “can't go to Vietnam, but” they'll “find a suitable candidate for that place on the calendar”

Charles Leclerc feels that “these things happen” referring to his last corner mistake in Turkey and added that “it's a learning moment and a starting point to grow and come back stronger”

Max Verstappen has revealed that he hasn’t “driven a regular car much” because he doesn’t “like shifting gears”

His teammate Alex Albon has stated that “at the end of the day, there’s still three races to show what” he’s got
