Australian Grand Prix title.
Most recent race
The Ferrari driver secured a podium spot at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix title on 9 March as he finished third in the Jeddah Corniche Circuit.
Leclerc started on the second grid, but he allowed Red Bull Racing's Sergio Perez to pass him and ultimately, he finished third which saw him collect 16 points.
Formula One title ambitions
The Monegasque racing driver is placed third on the World Drivers' Championship standings having accumulated 28 points from two races.
Leclerc is eight points behind Perez and 23 points behind leader, Max Verstappen of Red Bull Racing.
Why Leclerc could win the 2024 Australian MotoGP
The 26-year-old is very familiar with the Albert Park Circuit as he won the 2022 Australian Grand Prix on the same circuit.
Having secured a podium spot at the 2024 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, Leclerc will be confident of going two steps further and winning the Australian Grand Prix.
What did he say?
"We maximised our potential today and couldn’t have done better than this," Leclerc said after the 2024 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
"We struggled a bit on the Mediums, the Hards were tricky at first but improved throughout the stint and I was able to set the fastest lap on them with a bit of help from DRS.
"All in all, I felt good in the car."
