As if this had been seen sometime before, says Juuso Taipale, Iltalehti’s F1 journalist.

Ferrari to a superior victory.
A familiar thing about twenty years ago, but has been quieter lately.
Charles Leclerc has returned the Maranello dugout orhi to the place where it was accustomed Michael Schumacherin days of glory to see.
The parallels to the Schum era for this weekend are not limited to Leclerc alone.
However, the compulsion of a Monaco to start must begin.
In addition to winning, Leclerc snatched the pile from Melbourne, the fastest lap and the top spot in the race for each lap.

The “Grand Slam” is the first in Leclerc’s career. For Schumacher, he accumulated a total of five during his career.
At the top of the list is Jim Clark with eight total dominances. 54 years have passed since the death of the forgotten but perhaps the best F1 driver of all time on Thursday.
Leclerc has started the early season wonderfully. At this pace, he is marching towards the first World Cup title of his career as convincingly as Schumi at his best.
Remember what was often the story in another Ferrari alongside Schum?
Carlos Sainz got to know what it felt like to be Rubens Barrichello.
First, the lap that qualified for the top spots in time was destroyed when the red flags waved as the man gasped already straight toward the finish line.
Everything went wrong in the race.

Like Barrichello, Sainz slept badly at the start. The next round, then, the game ended completely when Ferrari slipped on the sand.
At his best, the sympathetic brass driver was even faster than Schum, but too rarely had there ever been any ambiguity about the real number one cannon in the stable.
Sainz has to pet here, or soon he will be Leclerc’s assistant driver.
This point is scarce for Finns.
During his Ferrari years, Schumacher fought hard against two blue-and-white drivers.
Kimi Raikkonen and especially Mika Hakkinen were often faster but more unlucky. All too often, McLaren-Mercedes left Finnish drivers by the track.
A scary memory of the past on the spine. Mika Häkkinen’s McLaren-Mercedes has rotted and Schumi is cooling off in the background with his Ferrari to victory. Zumawire / MVPhotos
For this role Max Verstappen can identify. Once again, Red Bull coagulated, and the nice points pot changed to a round zero.
However, where Häkkinen and Räikkönen kept roaring in their stomachs after much disappointment, Verstappen uploaded a loud text to his stable.
Gradually you should reach the finish line, or Sch … Leclerc escapes the unreachable.
One thing familiar from years ago is to be greeted with immense joy.
No, it’s not a return to spraying an alcoholic sparkling drink after a race. After as many as five previous races in the Arab world, rose water turned into sparkling wine. Not for champagne, as in Schum’s podium races.
The subject of joy was a huge interest in the species.
The weekend drew more than 400,000 ticket-buying viewers. It became the largest Australian sporting event ever.
The three-year wait created a dam that now erupted in a gratifying way. Australians love formulas.
But they are certainly not the only ones.
