Charles Leclerc’s battle with Vettel, rookie drivers, a fastest lap bonus and easier overtaking are a recipe for drama
Ferrari protégé Charles Leclerc – impressive in his rookie season for Sauber last year – is cleared to race without team orders against Sebastian Vettel. In testing the 21-year-old Monégasque showed no sign of being intimidated, virtually matching the German’s times, and Vettel is unlikely to react well to being beaten by a junior teammate. Potentially the must‑watch drama of the season.
