If not you had to start from the bottom, Charles Leclerc it would undoubtedly be one of the main favorites to win the final. Indeed, on Friday's free practice in Belgium, the Monegasque finishes in second place behind Max Verstappen.
Starting from behind
The fight for the world championship also considering Verstappen's penalty, it will happen in the rear. Leclerc is called to comeback, to try to shorten the gap from Verstappen, which for now it's well over 80 points. It won't be easy, but Spa is undoubtedly the best track where the Ferrari could decide to change the power unit, considering how much engine it takes and that in the next two races, especially in Zandvoort, overtaking is not so obvious.

Leclerc: "Goal comeback"
Basic it will therefore be the race pace, which Leclerc was unable to test very consistently today (given the weather conditions).
"Overall, the day wasn't bad , we tried several things. Everyone followed a different program, so it's very difficult to compare, moreover, back from vacation, but the sensations were good. The low fuel pace seems to be poor, but the high fuel pace seems to be quite good. We will continue to work and try to make a breakthrough during the night. We didn't pay much attention to qualifying pace because it would have been useless. Instead, we focused on the race pace to get back from the back of the grid".
