Now at the end of his sixth Formula 1 season with Scuderia Ferrari and with a recently signed renewal, Charles Leclerc still has his sights set on the World Championship. The Monegasque driver has never hidden the fact that winning the world title is the ultimate goal of his career, and he wants to achieve it with the Scuderia.
Mathematically, achieving this dream in 2024 has already become impossible, after the updates to the SF-24 car reignited enthusiasm and hope among the fans. However, Fred Vasseur’s team can still hope to win the Constructors’ Championship, which, considering the season’s initial expectations, would represent a true triumph.
Charles Leclerc Explains Why He Renewed with Ferrari
Appearing as a guest on Pirelli’s Box Box Box podcast, Charles Leclerc talked about his hunger for victories and why he decided to renew his contract with Ferrari. “Monaco and Monza are the two races I’ve always dreamed of winning,” said the number 16. “As a child, you always think about your first Formula 1 win, regardless of the location. Just winning a Grand Prix gives you an incredible feeling.” – he pointed out.
“After winning at Spa, I started thinking about which races I would like to win, and immediately thought of Monza and Monaco. This season, I won both, and it was incredible. Right now, I don’t care where I win, I just want to win as many races as possible to win the championship,” Charles Leclerc added – “To do that, you need to be in the right place at the right time. I don’t think luck is a huge factor, it all depends on how we work as a team. I think we’re on the right path, but it depends a lot on how the others work. That’s why we need to be good and work hard in the coming years.” – the Ferrari man pointed out.
“I believe 100% in the project, which is why I signed the renewal with Ferrari. I’m sure we will win a World Championship; we just need to keep working,” concluded the Monegasque.
