Leclerc, who leads the championship with 26 points thanks to his Fastest Lap bonus in Sakhir, admits it was a dream start to the year for his team.
 
"I'm incredibly happy after the last two years, which have been very difficult for the team, for myself, for Carlos last year," he said.
 
"We had to work extremely hard and ... to finally prove all the work we did in the last two years is paying off felt amazing.
 
"So for now it's started in the best way possible - pole position, victory, fastest lap, a one-two today with Carlos - we couldn't hope for better."
