Watching Ferrari compete toward the front of the field isn’t something the Tifosi has witnessed too much this season. But in the past two races, the Scuderia has looked in good form, especially after its on-track performance at the Austrian GP, where Charles Leclerc snagged a second-place finish on merit. This came after his P4 finish in Canada, and fans couldn’t help but find something to keep them believing in Ferrari’s form. And after the Austrian GP, they did. 

After his happy outing in Montreal, the Monegasque headed to Napoli, Italy, where he met a priest who was a proud Tifosi and the Charles Leclerc Fanclub member. In their conversation, the priest mentioned that he prayed for Leclerc occasionally. And fans held on to that fact till the Austrian GP, where Leclerc finished on the podium for only the second time this season. After the race, the priest posted a picture they took from their meeting in Napoli and captioned it, “let’s go, the best is yet to come. thank god.”

That’s when Ferrari fans started believing that the priest’s prayers were helping Leclerc’s performances, and since then, they’ve become as big fans of the priest as they are of Leclerc. Many of them asked the priest to pray for Charles every race weekend, and well, he obliged. And Leclerc fans are in a frenzy!

Going into the British GP, looking to carry forward his momentum, Charles Leclerc received support from his unexpected priest fan from Napoli.
