Charles Leclerc says that “no matter how long it takes,” his sole ambition is to become Formula 1 world champion with Ferrari. The Monegasque joined the Ferrari Driver Academy in 2016, stepped up to the Scuderia in 2019 and has since claimed eight grand prix victories with a best championship finish of second.
His stance underlines a deep connection with Maranello’s history and future: rather than exploring exits in search of a quicker path to a crown, Leclerc insists that writing the story in red is the only outcome that matters. That commitment brings pressure, but also clarity. The task is obvious: help Ferrari deliver a car capable of fighting for titles over a season, then execute.
In a landscape where driver moves are frequent and patience is scarce, Leclerc’s declaration is both old‑school and bold. The destination remains the same — the route, he’s determined, will run through Ferrari.
