Ferrari star Charles Leclerc shared a simple message after they launched their 2020 F1 car for the new season

Charles Leclerc was one of the stars of the F1 circuit last season and will be hoping to win more races with Ferrari and their 2020 car.

The 22-year-old won two races in his first season with the legendary outfit. He did have some fights, on the track, with Max Verstappen but the concerning issue was his squabbles with the team and also Sebastian Vettel.

Leclerc questioned some of the decision making by the Ferrari management and should have won more than the two races he did.

However, he is one of the best in the circuit and he seems ready for another season too. Ferrari revealed the SF1000 ahead of the new campaign and Leclerc had one simple message that seemed to his the right notes:

Leclerc also posted a photo of him wearing the Ferrari overalls and he seems determined to fight Mercedes for the title in 2020.

SF1000 similar to the SF90?

Fans were quick to notice that the livery and design of the new 2020 challenger was identical to that of its predecessor.

The SF90 and SF1000 are nearly the same in looks but Mattia Binotto, the team principal of Ferrari, claimed that the new car is completely different on a technical level and also had some concepts that are brand new.

Ferrari didn’t have the fastest car on the grid throughout 2019, but there were some great performances by Leclerc and the team.

It will be interesting to see how the testing days go as that provides an idea of where a team is. Of course, Ferrari and Mercedes often keep things in reserve and never show their true pace until the first weekend of the season.
