Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc is hoping to back up his strong qualifying performances in Baku with a solid result in the main race, which has proven more difficult for him in previous years. The Monegasque driver made the comments at a press conference ahead of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
Leclerc noted that the Baku round is among his favourite races on the calendar.
"The Grand Prix in Baku is one of the races I enjoy. Qualifying here has gone well for me, but the races have been more difficult. I hope this time we can put that right," the Ferrari driver said.
According to Leclerc, the team has faced certain difficulties in qualifying this season.
He also commented on his rivalry with his teammate.
"Both my teammate and I want to win. There is competition between us, but at the same time we are striving for the team to win. For us, that is one of the priorities," the driver stressed.
The Azerbaijan Grand Prix will take place on 24–26 September.
