Leclerc explains reasons behind #16 F1 number choice
Charles Leclerc has revealed the reasons behind his decision to choose #16 as his permanent number in Formula 1 ahead of his debut in 2018 with Alfa Romeo Sauber. Ferrari junior Leclerc will step up to F1 next year after dominating the Formula 2 championship through 2017, with his promotion being confirmed by Sauber at the start of this month. Leclerc selected #16 as his permanent number to use in F1 throughout his career, but revealed that it was in fact his third choice for a number as Kimi Raikkonen and Pierre Gasly were already using his desired picks.
