Charles Leclerc BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
On the heels of Formula One’s Italian Grand Prix at Monza, Charles Leclerc has been a magnet for headlines and fan debate. After the Friday practice sessions, Leclerc spoke to the media in Scuderia Ferrari HP’s hospitality, recalling last year’s fairy-tale win at Monza with a grin, but openly conceding that the team are far from favorites this season. "Repeating last year’s victory will be almost impossible. We definitely can’t be considered the favorites, but Monza is Monza and I’ll never stop trying," he said, setting a determined tone for Ferrari’s home weekend, while donning a special helmet and suit to honor Niki Lauda’s historic legacy with Ferrari.
Over the weekend, Charles muscled through a tense qualifying, ultimately landing fourth on the grid behind Max Verstappen and the McLarens. “Disappointed but not surprised,” he admitted, saying he’d wrung everything from the car but Red Bull and McLaren simply had more pace. Leclerc’s optimistic prediction of a possible pole, voiced after Ferrari’s decent showing in Friday practice and echoed by The Formula 1 site, couldn’t withstand Saturday’s reality—the sheer performance gap proved insurmountable.
Race day brought flashes of spirited dueling with Oscar Piastri—Leclerc briefly seized P3 at the start, thrilling the tifosi, but eventually fell back, citing overheating tyres and fading grip. “I gave it my all... but I lost grip with my tyres overheating and struggled to keep Oscar behind," Leclerc said, ultimately finishing fourth in a hard-fought battle. Ferrari’s official post-race report repeated his devotion to the fans, and social media erupted with fans lamenting, sometimes dramatically, that “Charles Leclerc’s talent is wasted at Ferrari" after seeing moments of brilliance not reflected in the final standings.
On the business and team dynamics front, Charles finds himself sharing the spotlight—and pressure—with superstar teammate Lewis Hamilton. Fred Vasseur Ferrari’s boss told the F1 Nation Podcast that Hamilton’s celebrity has eased media attention on Leclerc, allowing him to mature and focus more on his racing. This subtle shift shows Hamilton’s arrival may be reshaping Leclerc’s career in meaningful ways, building a sense of unity that could bolster Ferrari’s hopes in the long run.
No major scandals or off-track shakeups have surfaced. Personal updates are limited, save for persistent fashion and relationship chatter swirling around his girlfriend Alexandra Saint Mleux, who remains the tabloid pick for F1’s most fashionable WAG. For now, the Monza result and his evolving partnership with Hamilton headline Leclerc’s current chapter—a story marked more by dogged perseverance than spectacular triumph, but one that remains pivotal for both Ferrari and Leclerc’s legacy.

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.
