Fresh from the near podium in Turkey, with the illusion of being able to play an incredible victory, Charles Leclerc arrives in Austin with the hope of being able to replicate the latest good performances showcased by the SF21. Ferrari is counting on its excellent performance and that of Carlos Sainz – separated in the standings by just half a point – to win the duel for third place in the constructors’ standings with McLaren. In view of the American GP, however, the red rider joked about what wasn’t exactly a linear journey. In fact, Leclerc revealed at a press conference that he was forced to make an unexpected stop in New York, before arriving in Texas.
“We changed flights and went to New York first – explained the native of the Principality – I spent the night there and it really is a beautiful city. Then I went to Milwaukee “. At a ‘geographic’ level, Leclerc also expressed himself on some proposals that have been made in recent days to integrate the future F1 calendar. In 2022 the total GPs will be 23, a new record, but possible additions are still visible on the horizon. One idea is that of a third GP in the United States – in Indianapolis or Las Vegas – and also the return of F1 to Africa, where it was last raced in 1993. Ferrari’s # 16 said he was in favor of both. the options. “I love the USA and I would be happy to run a third race there – explained Leclerc – and I also agree with Lewis [Hamilton], a race in South Africa should be part of the calendar“.
