Leclerc is out of contract at the end of 2024, with his future a🌠 hot topic.

The Monegasque has been linked with a move to Mercedes should 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton call time on his career for 2025, while Aston Martin has been mooted as an optiꦏon, first suggested by Ralf Schumacher.

🎐Speaking ahead of this weekend’s Austrian Grand Prix, Leclerc made clear that he doesn’t have any “particular deadlines” for his new F1 deal.

“No, I don’t have any particular deadlines,” he said. “I mean, I still f𒈔eelꦜ like a year-and-a-half is a long way to go. But I didn’t tell myself any particular deadlines.

“Slowly. We’re star𝔍ting sl𝓰owly to speak about it, yes.”

Leclerc admitted that the topic of his future isn’t really on his mind as he refused to 💙get drawn on potentially leaving Ferrari.

“To be honest, it’s not really on my mind yet,”꧒ ꦜhe said when asked about options outside of Ferrari.

“When I say we slowly started talking about it, it’s just here and there, but nothing special, nothing specific. Again, I feel like it’s a long way to go and I don’t feel iꦏt’s now the time to start talking about it.”

It’s also new territory for L♏eclerc, whose career path was destined for Ferrari when he stepped into F1 in 2018 with Sauber.

Give𒁏n Ferrari’s stuttering form as of late, he may be temp❀ted to jump ship.

“It’s probably the firꦇst time in my career that I’m in this position,” he added.

“I don’t think [that’s] because nobody wanted me in the past, it’s jꦑust because the nature of the contract it’s the first time in my career that I actually get closer to a deal to end in F1

“And all of the other changes I’ve made until now – basically Sauber to Ferrari was q🍸uite straightforward. So, it is a different situation I find myself in in my career.

“But I don’t mind – I’m just focusing on driving, I just hope to win as quickly as possible in Ferrari for now and then we will see.”
