16Biography of F1 driver Leclerc Charles
Charles Leclerc (Monaco, October 16, 1997) is a Monegasque racing driver. He began his career in karts in 2005, where he won the French PACA championship in the same year, in 2006 and 2008. In 2009 he became French cadet champion, before moving to the KF3 class in 2010, where he won the Junior Monaco Kart Cup. He continued racing in KF3 in 2011, the year he won the CIK-FIA KF3 World Cup. He then moved to the KF2 category in 2012 with ART Grand Prix and won the WSK Euro Series title, as well as finishing 2nd in the CIK-FIA KF2 European Championship and the CIK-FIA Under 18 World Kart Championship.
In 2014, Leclerc switched to single-seaters, racing in Formula Renault 2.0 Alps for the British team Fortec Motorsports. During the season he achieved seven podiums, including two wins, one at Monza, while the other came in the final round at Jerez; he finished the championship in 2nd place, behind Nyck de Vries. He switched to European Formula 3 in 2015, with the Dutch team Van Amersfoort. In the first event of the season, held at Silverstone, Leclerc took pole position in race-2 and race-3 after the original poleman, Felix Rosenqvist, was ruled out for technical reasons; he won his first race on the same weekend, in race-3.
His second win came the following race weekend, at Hockenheim, again in race-3, while in the other two races he scored two podiums and three wins. In December 2015, he participated in GP3 postseason testing with ART Grand Prix and Arden International. He raced in the 2016 GP3 season with ART Grand Prix, where he graduated champion. The week after his title win in GP3, it was confirmed that Leclerc would move up to Formula 2 for the 2017 season with the Prema Racing team, along with teammate Antonio Fuoco, also part of the Ferrari Driver Academy: he scored seven wins, two second places and one third place, which, along with other excellent results throughout the season, allowed him to become F2 Champion.
In March 2016, Ferrari announced that Leclerc would be one of the two new drivers included in the Ferrari Driver Academy and a test driver not only for the Maranello team but also for Sauber; he participated in the first free practice session of the British Grand Prix while in May he tested the Ferrari F14 T at the Fiorano circuit: he completed 300 kilometers, which was necessary to obtain the FIA Superlicense. He made his Formula 1 debut in 2018 competing for the Sauber team, with which he won 39 points in total, with finishes always in the top 15 (and only three retirements); at the conclusion of the season, he was made official as a Scuderia Ferrari driver, with which he has currently earned 8 wins, 43 podiums and 26 pole positions. His race number is 16; he was a childhood friend of Jules Bianchi and began racing karts on the Brignoles track, run by Bianchi's own father. Like Jules, Leclerc joined the ARM management company, commanded by Nicolas Todt.
