Formula 1 has been gaining more and more popularity in recent times, and Leclerc’s interactions with his fans, including the enthusiastic shout captured in the video, will undoubtedly leave a warm impression on people around the world.
While Leclerc enjoyed the lighthearted moment with his loyal fan, his team, Ferrari, did not have the best performance in Jeddah. Despite his best efforts, Leclerc finished in third place, behind the two Red Bull cars.
The Milton-Keynes-based team emerged victorious at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and once again established themselves as the early leader. However, Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur acknowledges that his team is making progress.
So far in the 2024 Formula 1 season, Ferrari has managed to secure two third places. Currently, they seem to be slightly behind the Red Bull team in terms of performance. It will be intriguing to see how Ferrari will approach the upcoming Australian Grand Prix weekend.
