Just days after announcing a new contract with Scuderia Ferrari, Charles LeClerc suffered an embarrassing crash. Upon exiting the Anderson bridge in Free Practice 1 in Singapore, LeClerc turned a little too early. This resulted in his front right wheel clipping the wall and wrecking the suspension.

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. 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.
<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Charles Leclerc: Net Worth</h2>

FromÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.gpfans.com/en/articles/4026/formula-1-driver-salaries-2019/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$3.5 million in 2019</a>, his salary shot up to a whoppingÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.racefans.net/2020/03/30/how-much-are-f1-drivers-earning-in-2020-and-should-their-fees-be-capped/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$10 million per annum</a>, in 2020.

<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Leclerc : Endorsements</strong></h2>
Leclerc is largely backed by Scuderia Ferrari and the Ferrari Driver's Academy. Though he is still in the early stages of his career, his age will give him a chance to earn more sponsors and backers.

Leclerc was also sponsored byÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.richardmille.com/friends-and-partners/charles-leclerc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Richard Mille</a> in his junior days. He is destined to attract the interest of a lot of sponsors who would be looking to take advantage of his long-term Ferrari deal in order to establish their own name.

In May 2020, Charles Leclerc <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://twitter.com/Charles_Leclerc/status/1262352802803789826?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced his partnership</a> with the Italian luxury fashion brand Giorgio Armani. Leclerc is the brand ambassador for Armani and its Made to Measure Line. He also mostly prefers using Ray-Ban sunglasses amid the American-Italian company's partnership with Scuderia Ferrari. In 2022, EA Sports made Leclerc their first-ever F1 ambassador.

<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Personal life</h2>
Leclerc was born and brought up in Monte Carlo, Monaco, one of the most elite places on the earth. However, despite growing up in one of the richest principalities around the world, Leclerc didn't possess an abundance of wealth. He had positive influences from his fatherâ€“HervÃ© Leclerc, and former F1 driver Jules Bianchi during his childhood. HervÃ© was a former race car driver himself and competed in Formula 3 during the 80s and 90s. Sadly, the Monegasque lost those close to him in tragic circumstances.
