Charles Leclerc Kicks Off Canadian GP Weekend on the Wrong foot

More things going wrong for Charles Leclerc! From an unfortunate and painful DNF in Baku to missing flights to Canada, could it get any worse? While on the grid Leclerc has faced terrible times recently, off-the-grid is also becoming intolerant for him. All this is after his recent struggles with his team and car have plummeted his championship chances.

Leclerc was leading the season at one point and now sits 3rd on the table. Not only Max Verstappen has overtaken him, but to the dreaded fear of several Leclerc fans, even Sergio Perez has. Arguably, Leclerc is largely not responsible for this, but pays for the team’s mistakes and strategy fails.

As he preps up for the Canadian Grand Prix, the Monegasque looked forward to the GP. But in a new update, Leclerc wrote, “STARTING THE WEEK BY MISSING MY FLIGHT TO MONTREAL”.

These athletes travel all over the globe on a calendar that is not the most connective. Leclerc previously raced at Baku, which is far away from Canada, and now his missed flight will surely cause discomfort. However, the 24-year-old will be looking forward to the Canadian opportunity after a streak of no wins.

The circuit might favor the F1-75 and this could be a close call between Red Bull and Ferrari again.

Can Canada prove to be a saving grace for Charles Leclerc?

Leclerc, despite not winning, has presented a strong front for the opposition. The Monegasque has produced some sensational pole laps and has been strong in Qualifying. He has been rather competitive with the Bulls, even outperforming them at times. Further, Leclerc has at least won 2 GP’s this year and still has the chance to redeem himself.

Though he sits a decent margin away from the table leader, only 8 rounds have concluded. There are still several races to go and clearly, Ferrari has made a fast car.
