Charles Leclerc is new to Formula 1 and Ferrari, but is the 21-year-old eyeing up a future in Moto GP? The Monegasque witnessed the race in Mugello first hand on Sunday and was amazed by what he saw.
Leclerc has his sights firmly set on the Formula 1 world championship, but he's also hungry to have a go on a bike. He expects his passion to still be present when he jumps on the bike because he believes it's similar.
"I had one day free, so I decided to come here, it's always good fun. I [drove at Mugello] back in Formula 3, but now being here for the first time [for MotoGP], I absolutely want to try one of those bikes," Leclerc was quoted by GPFans.
"Maybe I cannot ride with one of these bikes straight away but maybe to train with some bikes on-track would be the target now. I feel in my environment. In the end, there are two wheels instead of four but the passion is the same."
During an entertaining race, Danilo Petrucci claimed his first MotoGP win for Ducati. Earlier on Monday, George Russell said he hoped that Formula 1 was more like Moto GP.
