Leclerc looking forward to Zandvoort: 'A jump into the unknown'

Charles Leclerc had a difficult weekend with Ferrari last time out. The Italian stable performed poorly at the Belgian Grand Prix and failed to reach their pre-summer break performance.

The driver, however, has a different view of the weekend, as he explains in conversation with Motorsport.com. "Of course it wasn't great, but it was what we expected before the weekend on paper. The rain came and it wasn't easy to get the tyres in the right range. We tried to do that before qualifying, but it went the way we saw it."

Leclerc on Zandvoort track

Ferrari don't have long to digest the Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps, as the next race is already upon us. In the Netherlands, Leclerc hopes to make use of the experiences he had earlier at the track.

"Here at Zandvoort is like a jump into the unknown for us. I know the circuit, but we will have to see because we are in Formula 1 here. I think on paper this track is not so bad for us. I think it could be better for us than Spa. But we'll have to wait and see if it really is and we won't know until we get on the track."
