Charles Leclerc has never made it to Q-3 at his home race before. But the Monegasque looks in a good position to achieve that this weekend judging by his Free Practice 2 performance for the Monaco Grand Prix, as he headed Ferrari team mate Carlos Sainz by a 10th at the Top of the time sheets, as MercedesAMGs’ Lewis Hamilton took 2rd.

It had looked for a long time like Carlos Sainz would be finishing the session as the fastest driver, before a late effort in the qualifying simulations saw Leclerc take the P1 spot a fine response after gearbox issues sidelined him for the majority of the morning session, as he wound up 0.112s ahead of Mr. Sainz, in is a fantastic result for the Scuderia.

Mr. Sainz said Wednesday in Monaco that this weekend would be a good indicator of his confidence levels in the Ferrari SF21. And on the evidence of Free Practice 2, he is looking very confident indeed, following up his P2 in FP1 with the same position in FP2, heading Mr. Hamilton by 0.278s, with the Ferraris the only 2 cars in the 1m 11s around the Principality so far.

Mr. Hamilton was narrowly ahead of the Red Bull of chief title rival Max Verstappen, who complained of understeer in the session, as the second MercedesAMG of Valtteri Bottas claimed P5, 0.423s off the pace of Mr. Leclerc.

I have raised my long term target to 375, a Strong Bull call, the strongest on the Street and am holding the mark during this recent profit taking, and seeing RACE as a buying opportunity.

Ferrari has an average rating of Buy and a consensus target price at 231.99.

A number of large investors have recently bought shares of RACE, and there have been very few instances of insider selling over the past yr that we have seen. And Ferrari continues to buy back its stock in here.

The stock is considered defensive in the sector.
