The Italian squad has been the team to beat so far this season, with Leclerc emerging as the championship leader – winning two of the first three races.
With Carlos Sainz having had a DNF in Australia last weekend, Leclerc is 38 points ahead of his teammate and is clearly in the best position to go for the title.
But despite the obvious advantage that Ferrari could get from throwing all its weight behind one driver, team principal Mattia Binotto is clear that both drivers remain clear to go for wins right now.
“It’s only three races which have been done now,” he explained. “There are still 20 races left, hopefully 19 or 20. So the championship is still very long.
“Our drivers are free to fight, and I am really looking forward and enjoying that they are battling for a good place, and first place, if possible.”
