"Also, a significant drive to demonstrate my abilities."

"I'm thrilled about embarking on this new adventure."

Our relationship is also excellent.

"I hold Lewis in high esteem for all of his accomplishments."

"Facing Lewis will undoubtedly mark a significant milestone in my career."

"Collaborating to restore Ferrari to its leading position."

"It's going to be fascinating to observe my position relative to Lewis."

"Each of us possesses unique talents, along with our own set of skills and areas for improvement."

Regarding Lewis, the shortcomings are minimal. However, his strengths offer valuable lessons for me.

"It's going to be incredibly fascinating."

"What sets it apart is his understanding of who I was prior to my entry into Formula 1, before everything became chaotic. Having that deeper connection with someone is significant."

"He's quite direct, which I appreciate, as it helps us save time.

"I also maintain a high level of self-honesty. Thus, when he notices an issue, we swiftly make enhancements."

Over the weekend in Barcelona, Leclerc and his teammate Carlos Sainz encountered an unusual moment of tension.

A heated conversation between them was observed in the parc ferme area, followed by Sainz criticizing Leclerc for frequently voicing complaints.

Previously, Leclerc mentioned regarding Sainz: "Keeping our strong relationship going is quite effortless."
