Charles Leclerc extended his Formula 1 deal with Scuderia Ferrari for “several more seasons”.

It is not clear how long Leclerc will stay with the team since it was not specified, but the feeling is that the Monégasque will continue with the Scuderia for a very long time.

Leclerc shared his feelings regarding what it means to drive for Ferrari, a team he has loved since he was young.

“I’m very pleased to know that I will be wearing the Scuderia Ferrari race suit for several more seasons to come,” Leclerc said in a video on social media.

“To race for this team has been my dream since I was three years old: I used to watch the Monaco Grand Prix from the window of a friend’s apartment at Ste Devote Corner, and I would always look out for the red cars.

“This team is my second family ever since I joined the Ferrari Driver Academy in 2016 and we have achieved a lot together, fighting through thick and thin over the past five years.”

Speaking about the future, the Monegasque said he is impatient of what’s to come, and can’t wait to continue working with the team.

“However, I believe the best is yet to come and I can’t wait for this season to start, to make further progress and be competitive at every race. My dream remains that of winning the World Championship with Ferrari and I’m sure that in the years ahead, we will enjoy great times together and make our fans happy.”
