Charles Leclerc BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Charles Leclerc’s week has been a heady mix of high-stakes racing drama, public relaxation, and a swirl of headlines about his career, rivalries, and personal life. The biggest news is still the aftermath of the Hungarian Grand Prix, where Leclerc’s bid for victory ended in bitter frustration. After claiming his and Ferrari’s first pole of the 2025 season, he dominated the opening stints only to suffer a mysterious chassis issue after his second pit stop, losing over two seconds per lap and tumbling to a demoralizing fourth. Leclerc vented his disappointment over the radio and on Instagram, describing the loss of pace as “extremely frustrating” and admitting the win became impossible due to problems that even left Ferrari boss Fred Vasseur at a loss for technical answers. The team initially feared he might not finish the race at all, emphasizing just how significant the mechanical setback was, especially in a year when Ferrari is still without a win. Jolyon Palmer and others have publicly analyzed Leclerc’s telemetry data, confirming a severe lack of energy deployment and top speed in the race’s decisive moments.
The combination of Leclerc’s resilience and the visible technical failures amplified headlines about the team’s persistent struggles and their implications for the title race, as several outlets comment on how stark the contrast remains between Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton. Pundit Juan Pablo Montoya grabbed attention by warning that Leclerc’s “life will get harder” at Ferrari as Hamilton, the marquee new signing, becomes ever more influential over team direction—even though Hamilton’s season has been dismal so far compared to Leclerc’s, adding fuel to speculation about Ferrari’s internal dynamics.
Outside the cockpit, Leclerc has leaned into the summer break, serving up easygoing content for fans and the tabloids. He appeared shirtless on a Sardinian yacht with girlfriend Alexandra Saint Mleux, with TMZ among others highlighting his off-season relaxation and fitness. Social media lit up when Leclerc played padel in Monte Carlo and posted images on Instagram, earning cheeky comments from Duolingo India and more. Meanwhile, Alexandra herself captured attention by interacting with Rebecca Donaldson—girlfriend of Leclerc’s former teammate Carlos Sainz—on Instagram, keeping their F1 WAGs circle in the social media spotlight. The press has been quick to note Leclerc’s optimism for the rest of the season, with quotes underscoring his hopes for teamwork with Hamilton and a strong bounce-back when racing resumes at the end of August. Finally, with the Hungarian Grand Prix still dominating conversation, Formula1.com, GPFans, and Sportskeeda all ran major features on Leclerc’s lost win and the intrigue surrounding Ferrari’s ongoing technical investigation and team leadership.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
