After last weekend's Grand Prix at Imola had to be cancelled, the World Championship resumes with what is now the sixth round, as well as Charles Leclerc's home race, on the narrow streets of Monte Carlo.

Frederic Vasseur, Team Principal: We go racing again, this time on Charles' home turf in Monte Carlo. It will therefore be a special and particularly exciting weekend for him and indeed for all of us.

Together with Charles and Carlos we have prepared this weekend in detail in order to make the most of every opportunity this tricky track could provide. Both our drivers love it - Charles has been on pole for the past two years and Carlos has always finished on the podium in Monaco since he joined the Scuderia - and we will be giving our all to deliver a good result for our tifosi.

Three questions to Charles Leclerc...

How would you sum up the Monaco track in one word?
CL: Adrenalin: that's the essence of what you get from this track. It's narrow and bumpy and in order to be quick you have to trust in your feelings. Driving a Formula 1 car here you basically have no time to pause for breath and, in qualifying, when you're pushing flat-out it's, as I said, a real adrenalin boost. I don't think you get the same feeling at any other track and I know that goes for everyone who races here. And it's particularly special for me as we are racing in the city where I grew up.

What are your favourite places in Monte Carlo?
CL: There are many: I grew up in Fontvielle, but this city really has plenty of unique places. Whatever you want to do, somewhere there's the perfect place to do it: sport, fashion or just relaxing. Personally, I like the beach at Larvotto and I reckon it's my special place when I'm in Monaco.

Your most memorable moments linked to the Monaco Grand Prix?
CL: I've said it many times before: I owe my love of racing to my father and to the fact I was born and grew up in Monaco. I was a very young child when I saw the Formula 1 cars racing through Ste. Devote from the balcony of a friend's apartment and I would play out the same scene with my toy Formula 1 cars. Then, through my father, I discovered the legendary Ayrton Senna and I was able to see just what he could do here in Monaco and I began to dream that, one day, maybe I could do it too. Being able to race today on the same track that contributed to the legend around him is something very special for me.
