Alonso told Corriere della Sera:

“He is young, intelligent, and talented. I’m curious to see if the Mercedes cycle will end. I feel that the moment is near.

I believe he has the combination of character and talent.”

When asked about his advice to young Charles, Alonso said:

“Learn to score points [regularly], to help the team, and remember that the World Championship is decided between July and September.

“Don’t be in a hurry and keep the excitement and emotion under control.”

The promising signs are there, and Alonso is backing the young fellow to convey back the driver’s title accomplishment to Ferrari.

Kimi Raikkonen was the last driver to win a big showdown at the Italian group, when he beat Alonso and Lewis Hamilton to it in 2007.

Alonso, a previous Ferrari driver, said that he is anticipating the effect Leclerc can convey to the title since joining the skipping horse.
