Charles Leclerc (#16) remains Ferrari’s homegrown star, having spent the majority of his F1 career fighting to return the Prancing Horse to championship-winning form. The Monegasque driver, known for his blistering one-lap pace and fearless racecraft, has claimed multiple victories and pole positions since joining Ferrari in 2019. Though often hampered by reliability issues and strategic missteps, his talent and determination have made him a fan favorite.
With Lewis Hamilton joining the Scuderia in 2025, Leclerc faces the biggest challenge of his career yet—going wheel-to-wheel with a seven-time world champion in equal machinery. As Ferrari continues its aggressive push for a title, Leclerc will need to channel his raw speed into consistent performances, hoping to finally bring a long-awaited championship back to Maranello.
