Leclerc has confidence in Sauber's potential for Brazil

Sauber driver Charles Leclerc has revealed his confidence in the side's potential ahead of the penultimate race of the season in Brazil.

Leclerc and Marcus Ericsson helped Sauber secure their first double points finish since Austria, when racing last time out in Mexico.

The 20-year-old, who is off to Ferrari next season, wants to sign off his Sauber career in style and has confidence ahead of the upcoming weekend.

"We are heading to Brazil for one of the last two races of the season," Leclerc told The Checkered Flag. "After a great result with both cars scoring points in Mexico, we are confident of our potential and will build on the progress we have made so far."

Sauber currently sit in eighth in the constructors' championship, but are only three points ahead of Toro Rosso, who sit a place below them in ninth.

"We will fight to have another strong result at Interlagos, and give our all to end the season on a positive note," the Monegasque driver continued. "It is an interesting circuit to drive, and I look forward to racing here."
