One of the biggest highlights of the 2019 British Grand Prix [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Grand_Prix] was the duel between Max Verstappen [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/max-verstappen/] and Charles LeClerc. The two drivers have been rivals in their junior years and it seems to have carried forward into Formula One. The two were almost like magnets and were constantly attacking each other during the race. By lap 24, Max Verstappen was behind teammate Pierre Gasly [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/pierre-gasly/], Sebastian Vettel [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/] and the two Mercedes [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mercedes], with only LeClerc behind. Then, the Dutchman ran wide and LeClerc was ready to pounce. The Monegasque driver ran around the outside and grabbed the inside of the next corner. However, the two drivers touched and Max Verstappen was forced wide, though he managed to stay ahead. https://streamable.com/y2qzs Later on, on lap 36, it was Pierre Gasly, who was next on the Charles LeClerc hit list. The Monaco native danced around the outside of the Village corner and gained another place, but not before getting harried by Gasly. In the end, Max Verstappen finished on the podium, while, the Bulls [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/red-bull/] were hot on his heels in 4th and 5th. https://streamable.com/zfl6w 

Ferrari driver Charles LeClerc saw plenty of action out on track when he had to
battle with both the Red Bull drivers, Max Verstappen and Pierre Gasly

<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Charles Leclerc 2024: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
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.

[caption id="attachment_2381640" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-2381640 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-11-19T062307Z_309101349_UP1EJBJ0HQG1T_RTRMADP_3_MOTOR-F1-LASVEGAS.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1366" /> Formula One F1 - Las Vegas Grand Prix - Las Vegas Strip Circuit, Las Vegas, Nevada, U.S - November 18, 2023 Ferrari's Charles Leclerc during the drivers parade before the race Pool via REUTERS/Darron Cummings[/caption]

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.

Ferrari's Carlos Sainz Jr. celebrates after qualifying in pole position with Ferrari's Charles Leclerc. REUTERS/Jennifer Lorenzini[/caption]

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.

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.

<strong>History</strong>

The Formula One World Championship first started back in 1950. The very first F1 champion was Italy's Guiseppe Farina who raced for Alfa Romeo.

The sport has had 33 different champions in its history and a few of them are multiple championship winners. Currently, the driver with the most championships is <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/michael-schumacher/">Michael Schumacher</a> with 7 under his belt. However, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mercedes">Mercedes</a> driver <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lewis-hamilton/">Lewis Hamilton</a> will be eager to overhaul that. Hamilton currently holds 6 World Championships and stands on the cusp of equalling Michael Schumacher's record at the end of the season.

Formula One

History The Formula One World Championship first started back in 1950. The very first F1 champion was Italy&#8217;s Guiseppe Farina who raced for Alfa Romeo. The sport has had 33 different champions in its history and a few of them are multiple championship winners. Currently, the driver with the most championships is Michael Schumacher with 7 under his belt. However, Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton will be eager to overhaul that. Hamilton currently holds 6 World Championships and stands on the cusp of equalling Michael Schumacher&#8217;s record at the end of the season.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Max Verstappen 2024: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
Max Verstappen was a child prodigy who was roped in by Red Bull F1 at a very young age. He moved into F1 directly from F3 at the age of 17 during the 2015 Australian Grand Prix, partneringÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="http://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/carlos-sainz/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Carlos Sainz Jr</a> in Toro Rosso. For the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix, he was promoted to Red Bull, a race that he won. There was a lot of hype around his entry into Formula 1, and it was completely justified.

He has always been classified as the next big thing in Formula 1, and many anticipate him to do what Lewis Hamilton is doing in the current F1 era. Such is his might and skill, that former F1 drivers, Jenson Button and <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="http://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/fernando-alonso/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Fernando Alonso,</a>Â <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.out-of-this-world-verstappen-on-same-level-as-schumacher-and-alonso-says.6BLkA9yf5x1Qy1rHLyRQPW.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">labeled</a>Â <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.planetf1.com/news/alonso-verstappen-is-the-best-driver-in-f1/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">him as one of the best F1 drivers on the grid</a>.

Max Verstappen's father - Jos Verstappen was an F1 driver who currently manages him. Jos' F1 career wasn't quite as successful as his son's. His mother's name is Sophie Kumpen. Verstappen's sister, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.instagram.com/victoriaverstappen/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Victoria</a>, enjoys a healthy following on social media and has her own fashion line.

The latter even showed up at the 2021 Monaco Grand Prix, where Verstappen won his second F1 race of the season. She was standing amongst the Red Bull crew during the podium celebrations. Following the nerve-wracking 2021 season, Verstappen and Piquet spent their Christmas and New Year with the Piquet family in Brazil. Kelly is the daughter of 3-time champion Nelson Piquet.

<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center"><strong>Max Verstappen's Stats and On-track </strong><b>Achievements</b></h2>
Considering the age at which he joined Formula 1, he has multiple records to his name. He is the youngest driver to start a race, score points, be a race leader, step on the podium, and set the fastest lap. Sadly, the one record that eluded him was the Youngest pole sitter, a record that still belongs to <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Sebastian Vettel</a>.

With his race win at the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix, he also became the youngest driver to win a Grand Prix. 2019 initially remained one of his best seasons in F1. He had to take a leadership role in the team with Daniel Ricciardo departing to Renault. Max Verstappen took 3 race victories and 2 pole positions to bring glory to both Red Bull and an ailing Honda.

However, then arrived the 2021 season, which witnessed the best version yet of Verstappen. Verstappen went in level on points with Lewis Hamilton heading into the season finale at Abu Dhabi. Both drivers were on 369.5 points and after a high-tension battle for the championship, the Dutchman ousted his rival, to clinch his first-ever title in F1.

Max Verstappen upped the ante the following season, claiming his 2nd Drivers' Championship in 2022 with 454 points. The 2023 season was Verstappen's most dominant as he clinched a hattrick of Drivers' titles with a record 86.35 win percentage. He won a total of 19 out of the 22 races in the 2023 season.
<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Max Verstappen: New racing number</h2>
Having won the world championship title in 2021, Verstappen earned the privilege of replacing his previous number, 33, with 1. The rulebook of F1 suggests that any driver that manages to win a title would have the option of sporting #1 over the succeeding season. However, if the driver fails to defend their title that year, they would have to revert to their usual number in the following season.

One might wonder why there hasn't been a driver sporting this prestigious number over all these years. Well, since the hybrid era, only two drivers, apart from Verstappen, have won titles; Hamilton and Rosberg. While the latter retired right after his championship-winning year, denying himself of embracing the king's treatment, Hamilton chose to run with his favorite number, 44, instead.
<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Max Verstappen: Net Worth 2024</h2>
Naturally, the kind of personality Verstappen is, he always finds himself in the news good or bad. But at the end of the day, Verstappen delivers on the track and Red Bull doesn't want to lose their star driver. The Dutchman is contracted to Red Bull until the end of 2028.

<h2><strong>Pierre Gasly 2021: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</strong></h2>
Pierre Gasly made his Formula One debut in 2017 for the Toro Rosso team. He filled in for the ousted <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniil-kvyat/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Daniil Kvyat</a> for two races before being replaced by Brendon Hartley. Later, when Carlos Sainz left for <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/renault/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Renault</a>, Gasly returned for the remainder of the season.

He made his full-time debut in 2018, alongside teammate Hartley, for <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/toro-rosso/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Toro Rosso</a>. His impressive performances in the sister team earned him a call-up to the Red Bull Formula 1 team for the 2019 season.

Unfortunately, he was fairly underwhelming when pitted against the Dutch phenom, Max Verstappen. So, he was demoted to Toro Rosso mid-season- after the race in Hungary. Following this, his performances displayed a complete turnaround.
<h2><strong>Pierre Gasly: Stats and On-track </strong><b>Achievements</b></h2>
Having only just started his F1 career, the young Frenchman does not boast of significant records or performances. His best performance is the win at Monza, Italy in 2020.

Having earned a promotion to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/red-bull/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Red Bull</a>, he had the chance to fight for wins and podiums.

Sadly, as mentioned before, he wilted under the pressure and was demoted to Toro Rosso as a result. However, he has suddenly regained his mojo, and it has translated to a maiden podium in Brazil.

In a relatively short career spanning merely 64 Grand Prix starts, Gasly's scored 199 points and two fastest laps, with two podiums and one win to his name. He achieved a career-best finish of seventh in the Championship standings last year.
