Leclerc says he is not satisfied with his sixth spot finish in Bahrain and he is looking forward to getting better in the upcoming races. 
 
“It’s a nice start and a good feeling and I am reasonably happy with the race today,” Leclerc said. 
 
 “I cannot be extremely satisfied with P6, but at the end of the day we need to look at where we were last year and it’s clear we have made good progress. All in all, it was a good race and a positive weekend.
 
"And we made a good step forward compared to last season. We’re still not where we want to be, so we need to keep working and pushing very hard to get better in the coming races.”
 
Mercedes are placed at the top of the Constructors' Championship standings and they were followed by Red Bull Racing-Honda and McLaren-Mercedes respectively.
