P4 in Las Vegas
Leclerc finished fourth in the Las Vegas Grand Prix Formula 1 race at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit on Saturday night.
ANALYSIS
A P9 starting spot would come as the result of a subpar qualifying effort. However, Leclerc would not be deterred as he had good pace in his Ferrari. Overtakes of both Fernando Alonso and Oscar Piastri in the opening laps would set the tone for the veteran driver. Leclerc would go long in his opening stint and pit out of P4 on lap 24. After his stop he would chase Piastri all the way to the finish. Leclerc would promote two spots as a result of the double McLaren disqualification and end with an impressive P4 result.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Last season started full of promise for Leclerc and Ferrari. They brought home two victories and two runner-up finishes in the first five races. That was before everything went south. Ferrari suffered a major mid-season slump and outgoing team principal Mattia Binotto admitted the team gave up developing the 2022 car after just 12 races to focus fully on the 2023 machine. The single-lap pace was an eye opener, though. After Binotto says the team stopped development Leclerc still managed to score three more front row starts. Race pace and race strategy are where Leclerc needs his team's support to take one step forward from his second-place finish in the 2022 championship standings time. Frederic Vasseur, who Leclerc worked with at Sauber in the past, will take the helm from Binotto as Ferrari's team principal in 2023. That could be the key change Leclerc and Ferrari need to mount an even bigger challenge to Red Bull.
