“In the factory we are aware of it and we know what we need to focus on to try to close the gap and get closer to them as soon as possible.” Charles Leclerc he is confident and, in the classic interview before the start of the weekend of Australian GP, dictates the road and the route to follow to try to reach Red Bull. After an excellent start to the season, at home Ferrari they know that they simply have to continue like this, increasing their performance even further which, according to what the track said, would mean getting ever closer to Red Bull, currently the great dominator of the championship.
Leclerc, his feelings for the Australian GP: “Red Bull? In qualifying we are close to them"
Ferrari both in Bahrain and in Saudi Arabia he proved to be the second force on the track. Precisely for this reason, in Maranello they believe in it and know that they can try to reach the Milton Keynes team. At the moment, according to Leclerc, Ferrari can already have its say in Melbourne, in particular for the session qualification, in which they seem slightly ahead of the performance that the SF-24 will be able to have in the race compared to the RB20. "Honestly I think we will be closer in qualifying than in the race. I have no doubt that we are working well and in the right direction."

“We have grown a lot since Vasseur arrived”
Ferrari continues to grow more and more, thanks and above all also to the work that Vasseur is doing. The Frenchman's work, perhaps, could take a back seat and for this very reason Leclerc prefers to specify the step forward made since the arrival of the new team principal. “To tell the truth, however, all this is work that we have been doing for about 6-7 months, a while since Vasseur arrived as team principal – explained Leclerc –. Obviously at Red Bull we are not talking about a gap of a tenth, but about 3-4 which is enough and we are aware of it."
