Can Leclerc beat the Silver Arrows and bring home a win?
The Monegasque driver was only a few laps away from a victory at Silverstone. However, due to Lewis Hamilton’s brilliant driving style, the Brit was able to catch up with Leclerc in the final stages of the race and see the checkered flag.
The driver with starting number 16 had to be content with second place and was certainly disappointed not to bring home his first win of the season. Leclerc was able to bring his Ferrari to pole twice, once in Monaco and once in Azerbaijan. Seeing how Mercedes is accepted into his team will certainly motivate the 23-year-old.

But Hamilton is also motivated and would also shoot for the provisional pole. He knows that by reaching pole he will increase his chances of another win this season, which will help him regain the lead in the title race against title rival Max Verstappen.
What are your predictions for the upcoming race in Hungary? Can Lewis get a back-to-back win? Or will Leclerc redeem himself this weekend and bring home the checkered flag for the Scuderia? Let us know in the comments below.
