Contributions
Charles Leclerc made his first contributions in F1 in his debut year driving for Sauber. His first few races in F1 were full of crashes, turns and he was outperformed by his qualified teammate in all factors of F1. However, in Baku, it all changed, Charles first got into Q2 for the first time then qualified an amazing P6. In his debut he outqualified Marcus Ericsson many times. This caused Charles to be named “F1s most high-profile rookie” in F1 article from the 16th of July 2018. Since then, he has been on an amazing streak for the rest of his career. In the 2019 season Charles Leclerc joined Ferrari and he ended his first season in a Ferrari with two wins, seven poles, four fastest laps and 10 podiums. Throughout the 2022 season Charles Leclerc proved his contributions for Ferrari and f1 after fighting for wins and placing second in the championship.
Throughout the 2017 season Charles’s father fell ill and it was obvious that he was near the end of his life. Before Charles’s Father, Herve passed away at the age of 54, Charles told him something that he died believing. What Charles told him wasn’t the truth, however, his lie soon came a reality for the racing driver. Charles told Herve that he had signed with F1 a team for the 2018 season, but at the time in 2017, he hadn’t signed for a team yet. His response to this was, “It was a bit earlier than I had really signed, but in the end, I didn’t lie because I am here and now in Ferrari, which feels incredible.” This led to Charles Loyalty to the Ferrari team throughout his F1 career and at which is still continuing. This dying loyalty to a team hasn’t been seen many times in the sport which makes it unique to see it every time it happens.
