Charles Leclerc denies Sainz will be Ferrari number two

Charles Leclerc has denied that he will be the certain 'number 1' at Ferrari from 2021. Sebastian Vettel will leave the team at the end of the year. McLaren driver Carlos Sainz, meanwhile, will replace him. But after driving a Ferrari sports car around the Monaco circuit on Sunday, Leclerc told L'Equipe: "I am not becoming the number 1. I think Carlos is a great driver and if that is not obvious to everyone already, he will show it at Ferrari. "He will be a great challenge for me," the 22-year-old added. As for whether he will miss the quadruple world champion Vettel, with whom he clashed at times in 2019, Leclerc answered: "It's true that he taught me a lot of things. I'm very happy to have had him as a teammate because he is a very experienced driver." Source: Grandprix
