Driven Charles Leclerc Determined To Restore Ferrari To Top Of Formula One
Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc told AFP he is determined to get the most "iconic team" in Formula One back to the summit after a difficult start to the season. The 27-year-old Monegasque, who has eight Grand Prix wins to his name since his debut in 2018, takes heart that he has finished on the podium in three of the last four races. Ferrari lie second in the constructors championship on 210 points, but a massive 217 adrift of McLaren heading into this weekend's British Grand Prix. Leclerc is fifth in the drivers title race on 119 with team-mate seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton sixth on 91. Leclerc has big ambitions given the last time Ferrari won the constructors title was in 2008, and Kimi Raikkonen the last of their drivers to be crowned world champion in 2007. Leclerc concedes the first part of the season was "disappointing", falling well below expectations and they were working hard to iron out their weaknesses so as to be more competitive. The recent upturn in fortunes on the track shows he said they were making progress, if not yet turned the corner. "However, we cannot stop there," he told AFP on the sidelines at Silverstone. "The objective is far bigger when you are Ferrari. "It is imperative we win again and regularly." Leclerc admits the atmosphere in the early part of the season was "complicated" but the accomplished pianist, who has also had shares in racehorses, prefers to look on the bright side. "I like to put things in context," he said. "I am a Formula One driver, what's more at Ferrari, it is something I always dreamed about. "Whilst of course the present situation affects me, as when you are a driver you want to win, I am still an extremely fortunate person to be doing the thing I most love in the world." Leclerc, whose last win came in the United States in 2024, adds people should not interpret that as him being satisfied with the status quo. "I am far from happy with the situation and I am absolutely trying to do everything in order to rectify matters," he said. "Indeed that is where I discover my motivation: that of returning the most iconic 'team' to the highest level and to win the world championship together." 'The wrong foot' Leclerc says being "200 percent honest" achieving that this year "is going to be extremely complicated". "I would never say it is impossible till the moment it is mathematically the case. "However, McLaren have an enormous lead, their drivers too, so it will be tough." In theory Leclerc has until 2029 -- when his contract comes to an end -- to achieve his aim but he says next year will be pivotal to how the future pans out for them. "Next year will be extremely important for the 'team' because of the new rules," he said. "If one gets off on the right foot, it will be a very good omen for the following years, on the other hand if we get off on the wrong foot it will be much tougher to get back to the top." Leclerc says that Hamilton's arrival after a dozen seasons at Mercedes has helped in the process of addressing issues with the car. "Our collaboration is going really well," said Leclerc. "Lewis arrived at a team and a structure totally different to the one he had worked with for so long," he said. "He came with a completely different vision with alternative solutions for the problems amd made his fair share of observations which helped us a lot. "On my side I have knowledge of the system and of the Ferrari infrastructure." Leclerc says he has not learned anything from Hamilton, though, he added with all the 40-year-old Briton's experience he had kept an eye on him. "The manner in which we work has stayed rather individual," he said. "However, on the other hand clearly the first time he arrived at HQ I analysed and observed all he did. "With all the success he has had, it is normal to do that."

Lando Norris Tops Silverstone Practice As Christian Horner Quizzed Over Max Verstappen
Lando Norris thrilled his home fans at Silverstone when he topped the times for McLaren ahead of both Ferraris in second practice on Friday for this weekend's British Grand Prix. In gusty conditions at the former airfield circuit in central England, the 25-year-old Briton clocked a best lap in one minute and 25.816 seconds to outpace Charles Leclerc by 0.222 seconds. Seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton, a record nine-time winner of his home race, was three-tenths adrift in third after topping FP1, his first practice success since last year's Las Vegas Grand Prix and his first with Ferrari. Championship leader Oscar Piastri, who leads Norris by 15 points, was fourth in the second McLaren ahead of four-time champion Max Verstappen, who spent much time grumbling about the balance and performance of his Red Bull. Kimi Antonelli was sixth for Mercedes ahead of Aston Martin's Lance Stroll, George Russell in the second Mercedes and RB rookies Isack Hadjar and Liam Lawson. "That was a good lap from Lando," said McLaren chief Zak Brown. "But Ferrari look very strong here and they're fast on both one lap and on race runs." After a fevered break replete with rumour in the paddock Red Bull boss Christian Horner did little to quell stories claiming Verstappen was bound for Mercedes even when a chance to categorically deny it was presented to him. Max exit clause "Contracts between the drivers and the team are always going to remain confidential," he told a news conference. "And with any driver's contract, there is an element of performance mechanism and that exists within Max's contract. "Now, absolutely, his intention is that he will be there and driving for us in 2026. It's inevitable that he's of huge interest to any other team and in the pit lane." Horner's comments confirmed the existence of an exit clause for Verstappen that, it is widely believed, may permit him to agree to join another team if he is outside the top three in the drivers' championship at the end of July. All of this was only a slight distraction from Hamilton's performance in topping the times in FP1 for Ferrari, his first practice success since last year's Las Vegas Grand Prix with Mercedes - and he began FP2 in the same vein by clocking 1:27.280 to set the pace on mediums. After briefly being overhauled by the McLaren duo, he trimmed his time to 1:26.902 while Verstappen was complaining "Have you seen my front tyres in the high speed? They just don't respond". He was 10th after 20 minutes when Carlos Sainz, affected by the wind, spun his Williams out of Luffield and almost hit Nico Hulkenberg before Hamilton regained top spot from Leclerc by three-tenths in 1:26.592. The top men bolted on softs with 30 minutes remaining and after Mercedes briefly took control, Leclerc went fastest ahead of Piastri before Norris delighted his fans, in the grandstands named after him, in 1:25.816 to move clear.
