Ferrari is on the hunt for its first F1 constructors’ championship since 2008 – but must out-score McLaren by 21 points if it wins in Abu Dhabi.
Charles Leclerc has expressed concerns about Ferrari’s chances of winning the 2024 F1 constructors’ title at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, as they currently trail McLaren by 21 points. To secure the title, Ferrari must win the race and out-score McLaren by those 21 points, or out-score McLaren by 22 points if they do not win. This would mark the first constructors’ title for either team since 1998. Despite Ferrari’s lack of success at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in the past, Leclerc believes that with a perfect performance, they can still achieve victory. Leclerc emphasized the need for Ferrari to finish first and second and for things to not go as planned for McLaren in order to have a chance at winning the championship.
