Charles Leclerc
If ever talent was obvious at an early age it was with Charles Leclerc, destined to be a F1 pilot practically from birth. Discipline, determination and sheer verve are at the steering wheel on his accelerated career.
'Since his early days in karting, I have closely followed Charles’ progress. Noted for his times, and his speedy qualifiers, the driver attracted my attention and enthusiasm, immediately convincing the brand must support his budding talent.'
Richard Mille
Charles began his karting career in 2005. He won the French PACA Championship not only the same year but subsequently in 2006 and 2008. In 2009, he became French Cadet champion before moving up to the KF3 class in 2010, where he won the Junior Monaco Kart Cup and joined Nicolas Todt’s All Road Management company.
Winner of the GP3 Series Championship in 2016 and the Formula 2 Championship in 2017, he made his Formula 1 debut the following year at the Australian Grand Prix with the Alfa Romeo Sauber F1 Team. In his first season, he finished in the points no less than ten times, closing out the championship with three consecutive seventh places before joining the Scuderia in 2019.
‘I am blown away by these performances. Charles demonstrates both tremendous daring and great skill. He has all the qualities necessary to be one of the great drivers of his generation.’
Nicolas Todt, Charles' manager
