Juan Pablo Montoya believes that Charles Leclerc’s recent victory at the British Grand Prix could make the title competition in Formula 1 more exciting if the Ferrari driver manages to maintain consistency similar to that of his teammate, Lewis Hamilton.
Leclerc’s victory, his first of the season and the first at Silverstone, came after a race where he took the initiative from the start and was able to take advantage of a safety car caused by the accident of Max Verstappen of Red Bull. The Monegasque driver crossed the finish line ahead of George Russell of Mercedes and Hamilton.
With this victory, Leclerc is now fourth in the drivers’ standings with a total of 108 points. In first place is Kimi Antonelli with 179 points, followed by George Russell with 154 points and Lewis Hamilton with 147 points.
During the post-race program on F1 TV, Montoya reflected on the change in Leclerc’s form. He stated that, after analyzing the data, it is essential to identify problems and resolve them to gain confidence at each circuit. ‘If Charles can be there every week, this championship will be really exciting,’ he concluded.
