<h2 style="text-align: center">Carlos Sainz 2024: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
Carlos Sainz Jr. is a Spanish racing driver presently driving for Scuderia Ferrari in Formula 1. He is the son of a race driver, Carlos Sainz Sr., who is a two-time World Rally champion. The Spaniard first made headlines when he ended McLaren's podium drought at the 2019 Brazilian Grand Prix. And since then, it has been a dream in F1 for Sainz, thanks to his strong end to the McLaren stint followed by a promising start with Ferrari.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Carlos Sainz: Career Timeline and On-track Achievements</strong></h2>
He made his debut in Formula 1 in 2015 with Toro Rosso alongside Max Verstappen. Since then, he remained within the Red Bull circle for a fairly long time. However, he was recruited by the Renault Formula 1 towards the end of the 2017 season. In the process, he replaced the British driver, Jolyon Palmer, and partnered with Nico Hulkenberg. After a year with the French manufacturer, he joined the McLaren team in 2019. With the Woking squad, Sainz Jr has blossomed and rewarded them with a maiden podium. In 2021, Sainz <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/f1-news-ferrari-news-i-only-realized-after-signing-carlos-sainz-gives-three-word-update-on-how-his-father-broke-ferrari-contract-news-to-him/">made a dream move to Scuderia Ferrari</a>. Other than that, Sainz Jr. is well known for his consistency.

In 2019, Sainz was the benchmark of consistency. Aside from a tough first three races, he finished in the points in 13 races. This included a five-race point-scoring streak from France to Hungary. His 2019 championship run saw him finish with 96 points and a fine 6th place. In the final race of 2019, he managed to finish ahead of Pierre Gasly to clinch a spot in the Top-6.

At the 2020 Italian Grand Prix, he qualified third behind the dominant Mercedes duo of Hamilton and Bottas. He went on to finish second, his career-best race finish, and the second podium, finishing 0.4 seconds behind race winner Pierre Gasly. 2021 was Sainz's most successful F1 season yet, as the Spaniard secured 4 podiums in total. His first podium under Ferrari arrived in Monaco, followed by Hungary, Sochi, and Abu Dhabi.

Carlos Sainz grabbed his first pole position at the British GP in 2o22. It was his 150th race start, and he managed to convert his pole position into his maiden Formula 1 race victory. Sainz finished 4th in the Spanish GP, which is his best finish in his home Grand Prix. The 2022 season witnessed Sainz finishing on the podium 9 times, which is his career-best for a season. He finished the season in 5th place in the Drivers' Championship with 246 points.

In a season dominated by Max Verstappen and Red Bull, Carlos Sainz was the sole other race winner in the 2023 season. Verstappen and Perez won 21 won of the 22 races, with Sainz's win coming at the Singapore GP. During the first free practice session of the inaugural Las Vegas GP, Sainz hit a loose manhole cover causing damage to his car. Subsequently, he was handed a 10-place grid penalty as Ferrari had to change the damaged components of his car. He finished the season with 200 points, 6 points behind his teammate Charles Leclerc, and 7th in the Drivers' Championship.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Carlos Sainz: Personal Life</h2>
Carlos Sainz is <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/f1-news-who-is-rebecca-donaldson-the-new-woman-in-carlos-sainzs-life-post-unexpected-breakup-up-with-long-time-gf-isa-hernaez/">currently in a relationship with Rebecca Donaldson</a>. Born in 1995 in Scotland, Rebecca is an entrepreneur and a social media influencer. She is also an athleisure model and has aligned herself with the fitness and wellness industry. Prior to Donaldson, Sainz was in a relationship with Isabel Hernaez. Sainz was reportedly dating the Madrid-born journalist and social media influencer for 7 years. The news of their split came around the 2023 Spanish GP.

And the number has followed Sainz into Ferrari as well, with the outfit offering Sainz an on-track salary of $8 million without bonuses.

Sainz finished the 2020 season in sixth place in the driver's championship for the second consecutive year. He accumulated 105 points and 6 top-5 finishes, which were both career highs. In April 2022, Sainz extended his partnership with Ferrari until the end of 2024, as his salary is $10M per year.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Carlos Sainz: Car Collection</h2>
The Spaniard has an impressive car collection. His garage boasts supercars from McLaren and Ferrari, which isn't surprising considering those are the teams he has driven for.

Charles Leclerc is what Ferrari calls the future. Signing a contract with the team till 2024, he has certainly turned heads at the Maranello-based outfit by showing them what he is capable of. He made his debut in 2018 for the Alfa Romeo-Sauber team. Coming from Monaco, he is only the fourth driver from the principality to make the drive in Formula 1 and the first since <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivier_Beretta" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olivier Beretta,</a>Â who made his debut in 1994. He began to impress everyone right off the bat.

There were a lot of doubts regarding Ferrari's signing for 2019. Many people suspected that he wasn't ready and that his much-experienced teammate, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Sebastian Vettel</a>, would undermine him on a grand scale. However, he ended up coming out on top, claiming P4 in the Drivers' Championship ahead of the German.

The very next season, despite Ferrari's struggles, Leclerc continued to carry the outfit on his shoulders all by himself. In the process, Leclerc also dominated against his championship-winning teammate for the second straight season, who later quit driving for Ferrari. The Monegasque, however, is facing a stern challenge from his new teammate, Carlos Sainz.

Leclerc also has one of the coolest helmets on the grid despite opting for a minimal design, with the color white dominating most parts of it.

<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Charles Leclerc: Stats and On-track Achievements</h2>
Charles Leclerc showcased his class and strength from the junior classes, winning the 2016 GP3 Series and the 2017 Formula 2 Championships. He was personally picked up by Sergio Marchionne.

While in the 2018 season, his best finish was P6, his performance in the 2019 season was on another level. Leclerc took 7 pole positions and 2 race wins, including the highly prestigious Italian Grand Prix at Monza, giving the Tifosi something to smile about. He was ready to challenge Sebastian Vettel from the very first day, very eager to dethrone his number 1 status. He did manage to do that, eventually. Leclerc also beat Vettel by an even bigger margin in 2020. However, in 2021, the lead Ferrari driver had a shocking defeat to his new teammate, Sainz. After an intense battle, Sainz pipped Leclerc in the driver's standings after an astounding podium at the season finale in Abu Dhabi.

Over the course of 85 race starts, Leclerc has scored 4 wins, 16 podiums, and racked up 646 points. He finished fourth in the Drivers' Championship in 2019. Leclerc also finished in P8 in 2020, as opposed to his teammate's P13. And lately, in 2021, Leclerc almost out-scored his teammate but ended up losing the lead at the Abu Dhabi GP.

The 2022 season was Leclerc's best yet as he went on to claim 3 race wins over the course of the season. He was level on points with Sergio Perez at 290 points each heading into the final race of the 2022 season. The Ferrari driver pulled off an overtake on Perez who started ahead of him in P2. In doing so, he secured 2nd place in the Drivers' Championship as well as P2 for Ferrari in the Constructors' Championship. The 2023 season witnessed a downward trajectory in terms of performance as he finished 5th in the Drivers' Championship with 206 points, 6 points ahead of his teammate Carlos Sainz who finished 7th. However, it was Sainz who achieved Ferrari's only victory in the season.
<h3 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Best Moments of Charles Leclerc</h3>
One of the most hilarious moments of Leclerc's career is his team radio exchange following a shunt at Baku during qualifying in 2019. He yelled, <em>"I am stupid."</em> Since then, a lot of fans would often bring up this radio message every time the Monegasque puts his Ferrari into the wall.

There is also the Banana costume he showed up in during one of his live Twitch streams which subsequently garnered him an insane amount of popularity. In the 2019 season, Leclerc became the youngest driver to receive the FIA pole position trophy for the most qualifying poles.

Charles Leclerc

Charles Leclerc 2024: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements Charles Leclerc is what Ferrari calls the future. Signing a contract with the team till 2024, he has certainly turned heads at the Maranello-based outfit by showing them what he is capable of. He made his debut in 2018 for the Alfa Romeo-Sauber team. Coming from Monaco, he is only the fourth driver from the principality to make the drive in Formula 1 and the first since Olivier Beretta,Â who made his debut in 1994. He began to impress everyone right off the bat. Formula One F1 &#8211; Las Vegas Grand Prix &#8211; Las Vegas Strip Circuit, Las Vegas, Nevada, U.S &#8211; November 18, 2023 Ferrari&#8217;s Charles Leclerc during the drivers parade before the race Pool via REUTERS/Darron Cummings There were a lot of doubts regarding Ferrari&#8217;s signing for 2019. Many people suspected that he wasn&#8217;t ready and that his much-experienced teammate, Sebastian Vettel, would undermine him on a grand scale. However, he ended up coming out on top, claiming P4 in the Drivers&#8217; Championship ahead of the German. The very next season, despite Ferrari&#8217;s struggles, Leclerc continued to carry the outfit on his shoulders all by himself. In the process, Leclerc also dominated against his championship-winning teammate for the second straight season, who later quit driving for Ferrari. The Monegasque, however, is facing a stern challenge from his new teammate, Carlos Sainz. Leclerc also has one of the coolest helmets on the grid despite opting for a minimal design, with the color white dominating most parts of it. ALSO READ: Ferrari Confirms Their Future With Charles Leclerc Through a 5-Year Contract and a Fat Pay Cheque Charles Leclerc: Stats and On-track Achievements Charles Leclerc showcased his class and strength from the junior classes, winning the 2016 GP3 Series and the 2017 Formula 2 Championships. He was personally picked up by Sergio Marchionne. While in the 2018 season, his best finish was P6, his performance in the 2019 season was on another level. Leclerc took 7 pole positions and 2 race wins, including the highly prestigious Italian Grand Prix at Monza, giving the Tifosi something to smile about. He was ready to challenge Sebastian Vettel from the very first day, very eager to dethrone his number 1 status. He did manage to do that, eventually. Leclerc also beat Vettel by an even bigger margin in 2020. However, in 2021, the lead Ferrari driver had a shocking defeat to his new teammate, Sainz. After an intense battle, Sainz pipped Leclerc in the driver&#8217;s standings after an astounding podium at the season finale in Abu Dhabi. Formula One F1 &#8211; Italian Grand Prix &#8211; Autodromo Nazionale Monza, Monza, Italy &#8211; September 2, 2023. Ferrari&#8217;s Carlos Sainz Jr. celebrates after qualifying in pole position with Ferrari&#8217;s Charles Leclerc. REUTERS/Jennifer Lorenzini Over the course of 85 race starts, Leclerc has scored 4 wins, 16 podiums, and racked up 646 points. He finished fourth in the Drivers&#8217; Championship in 2019. Leclerc also finished in P8 in 2020, as opposed to his teammate&#8217;s P13. And lately, in 2021, Leclerc almost out-scored his teammate but ended up losing the lead at the Abu Dhabi GP. The 2022 season was Leclerc&#8217;s best yet as he went on to claim 3 race wins over the course of the season. He was level on points with Sergio Perez at 290 points each heading into the final race of the 2022 season. The Ferrari driver pulled off an overtake on Perez who started ahead of him in P2. In doing so, he secured 2nd place in the Drivers&#8217; Championship as well as P2 for Ferrari in the Constructors&#8217; Championship. The 2023 season witnessed a downward trajectory in terms of performance as he finished 5th in the Drivers&#8217; Championship with 206 points, 6 points ahead of his teammate Carlos Sainz who finished 7th. However, it was Sainz who achieved Ferrari&#8217;s only victory in the season. Best Moments of Charles Leclerc One of the most hilarious moments of Leclerc&#8217;s career is his team radio exchange following a shunt at Baku during qualifying in 2019. He yelled, &#8220;I am stupid.&#8221; Since then, a lot of fans would often bring up this radio message every time the Monegasque puts his Ferrari into the wall. There is also the Banana costume he showed up in during one of his live Twitch streams which subsequently garnered him an insane amount of popularity. In the 2019 season, Leclerc became the youngest driver to receive the FIA pole position trophy for the most qualifying poles. He won the Crypto.com Overtake of the Year Award for his last-lap overtake of Sergio Perez at the inaugural Las Vegas GP in 2023.
