Leclerc ignores Ferrari in hilarious post

Leclerc is seven points ahead of team-mate Carlos Sainz, who won the race in Australia in a Ferrari one-two and will leave the team at the end of the season to make way for the sensational arrival of Lewis Hamilton.

Along with an impressive display from the Maranello squad in Melbourne, Leclerc gave fans a hilarious moment on the team’s social media.

Posting on Instagram, Ferrari used Leclerc to try and create an effect by throwing a polaroid at the camera, using the caption: “Us: Just throw a polaroid at the camera Charles, not too ha—”

But in the video, the Monegasque driver completely ignores his team's instructions, as he flings the polaroid almost at full force.
