Charles Leclerc will be looking to get back on form at the Canadian Grand Prix after a nightmare weekend in his home event last time out.

The Monegasque had an awful weekend on the streets of his hometown, being knocked out in Q1 and then retiring early after a puncture caused damage to his floor.

Many people have speculated that the Ferrari will suit the Montreal circuit, given its lack of slow corners.

Leclerc said in Ferrari’s preview of the race: “The Canadian Grand Prix should be an opportunity to try and bring home a good result.

“We must do everything well to prepare the car right down to the last detail so that we can get the most out of it.

“Last week, I was in the simulator in Maranello to work on settings and on improving the car and myself for this round.

“I find this track very interesting, because it includes various types of corner and a long straight where it should be possible to overtake.

“I really hope we can have a successful weekend.”
