Where is from
Leclerc, born in 1997, is from Monte Carlo, Monaco and runs under the flag of Monaco. He often refutes suggestions of being French and is a proud Monegasque.
Leclerc is fluent in French, Italian and English. He also speaks Spanish – helping him to converse with his partner, Carlos Sainz.
The 24-year-old started karting in 2005, winning the French PACA Championships in 2005, 2006 and 2008.
His Formula 3 career began in 2015 and progressed to F2 in 2015. He claimed the FIA Formula 2 Championship in his rookie season.
It was in 2016 that Jules Bianchi’s godson joined the Ferrari Driver Academy and worked as a development driver for the Haas F1 team and Scuderia Ferrari.
It was thought that if Leclerc won the GP3 Series championship, he would go straight to the Haas seat in F1, but the Haas team principal rejected the plan and Leclerc went back to F2.
Nationality
Charles Leclerc was born and raised in the Principality of Monaco.
He is one of five F1 drivers to come from Monaco – most recently Robert Dornbos in 2006.
He said that growing up in Monaco, Leclerc was taught to work hard and to respect other people.
“These two values are probably the most important,” Leclerc previously told CNN.
“Monaco has given me most of the values that I try to share in Formula 1.
While Monaco is most famous for its glitz and glamour, Leclerc says he often felt most relaxed where he grew up.
He said: “From the outside, I don’t think it gives the same image that is the image of my own city.
“I have all my friends, I have a whole family, and it doesn’t have all these glamorous parts; it’s party favors.
Country
Charles Leclerc is a 21-year-old racing driver from Monte Carlo in Monaco.
His nationality is Monecasque – the Principality of Monaco is an independent city-state and country, and is located along the French Riviera.
He didn’t make his first Formula One appearance after joining Sauber until last year.
Prior to this he had won the 2016 GP3 Series Championship, followed by the Formula 2 Championship in 2017.
He started the race in pole position during the second race of the current season in Bahrain, becoming the youngest driver ever to do so.
She has since debuted at the front of the starting grid on three other occasions, and won her first Grand Prix in Belgium on 1 September 2019.
His latest win at the Italian Grand Pix saw him move to fourth in the F1 standings with 182 points, just three points behind Max Verstappen, who is currently in third place.
