Davide Valsecchi makes a prediction about Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton
During a live Instagram in the company of Marco Melandri, Davide Valsecchi, among other topics, wanted to express his feelings ahead of the first F1 season round in Melbourne, Australia. In addition, the former GP2 driver also è dwelt on the new Ferrari pair formed by Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton.
"In Australia I see Leclerc very well, but I think Norris is even stronger. It will beà very difficult to see both McLarens off the podium in Melbourne" began the'former Italian driver.
"For me è more likely that Charles will win his first world championship than Lewis's eighth. Until last year Leclerc was the star of the red car, now he doesn't seem to be anymore, so in my opinion it can be his season. Everyone expects so much from Hamilton, but if the Monegasque can beat him in the first three or four qualifying he will gain incredible confidence and assurance. Last year, in the second half of the championship, è he was the one who scored the most points along with Norris" added the former Sky Sports F1 correspondent.
"Antonelli è a talented driver, but we need to let him have some races to gain experience and only after that we can make some assessments. At the beginning he has to focus exclusively on getting the car to the finish line, accumulating kilometers and learning" concluded Davide Valsecchi.
