Leclerc is keen to win this weekend's US Grand Prix in order to boost his chances of finishing third on the standings.
"Obviously being third in the Formula 1 World Championship will be crazy," Leclerc told Planet F1.
“I mean last year as I said I was fighting for the thirteenth position and I never imagined that I could be fighting for a podium in the world championship this year."
Mercedes are the 2019 Constructors' Championship winners having won the title after their driver Bottas won this year's Japanese Grand Prix.
