The Foxes are currently five points clear of second-placed Tottenham heading into this weekend's fixtures, but the Italian does not expect to repeat their feats next season
Claudio Ranieri admits that Leicester City's remarkable title bid may well prove to be a one-off.
The Foxes sit top of the Premier League with nine matches left to play, five points clear of Tottenham and eight ahead of Arsenal.
But as clubs prepare to have their bank balances further enhanced by next season's bumper television right deal, Ranieri feels the established order could once again rule the roost in 2016-17.
"It could be a change this year but next year – restart," he told a news conference ahead of Monday's home match against Newcastle United.
"Every decade or 20 years something strange could happen. For this reason it could be this year and then nevermore.
"I don't know if this is a one-off. It's crazy numbers, a crazy league and anything could happen."
Despite Leicester's lofty status, with Spurs their nearest challengers and Manchester City 10 points behind with a game in hand in fourth, Ranieri refuses to consider his team to be favourites for the title.
Arsenal are in FA Cup action this weekend and Arsene Wenger's third-placed team would be 11 points off the pace were Leicester to pile further misery upon struggling Newcastle with victory at the King Power Stadium.
"No. For me we are the same. For me the favourites are the others, of course," Ranieri said.
"It doesn't matter [if we go 11 points above Arsenal]. We have to fight and at the end we can say we achieved this.
"We are in the Europa League, fantastic; we are in the Champions League, amazing.
"Everybody is a threat because the league this year is crazy. You know my idea and I still have this idea."
Spurs face Aston Villa on Sunday, due to their Europa League encounter with Borussia Dortmund on Thursday, but Ranieri says he may not watch the encounter.
"I'll tell you after the match, I don't know what will happen," the Italian said.
"Maybe I will go to the restaurant or maybe I will watch the match. I don't know – it depends on my boss."
