Charles Leclerc with his new Ferrari still wins and sends the fans into a frenzy. The Monegasque driver triumphed in Formula One Australian Grand Prix, which took place in Melbourne, taking his second victory of the season and increasing his lead in the drivers' standings.
Leclerc literally has dominated the race repeating the success that Ferrari had brought back in Bahrain and thus consolidating its leadership while Ferrari strengthens its constructors' standings.
Leclerc, who is in his fourth success in his career, started in pole position and immediately made it clear what the wind was like in the Grand Prix, immediately taking the lead of the race. Behind him at the finish line they placed Perez of Red Bull and the drivers of Mercedes, Russell and multiple world champion Hamilton.
On the other hand, Leclerc's teammate was unlucky, the Ferrari driver Sainz who ended up on the gravel on the second lap and had to retire. No better fate for the reigning world champion, Verstappen who contested victory with Leclerc for a good part of the race but who had to retire on lap 39 due to engine failure. A retirement that definitively blocked Leclerc's path to victory, to the delight of Ferrari and everyone fans of the Red Maranello who still can't get over the turning point that the new car and the new engine are giving to the legendary Italian team this year
