A biography for Charles Leclerchasn’t been written yet.
“I think it would be very exciting to do a track like Silverstone the other way around, to arrive so quick in Becketts and then Maggotts would be very exciting.”
“From the beginning when you go into this sport, you know how dangerous it is. It will never be a safe sport.”
“Certainly driving a Ferrari is, at the same time, a dream come true, a huge responsibility and a great honor.”
“My father, well he helped me with everything. From the start he was my biggest supporter and taught me a lot about his experience as a driver.”
“Experience is always a plus, but I believe if you are good enough for an F1 seat, you are good enough from the year you arrive in F1.”
“I don't really feel pressure.”
“To grow you must understand and admit your mistakes, it is an approach that works for me, it is not necessarily the same for everyone.”
“I believe what matters are facts and behaviours in our daily life rather than formal gestures.”
“You should be judged on your performances, not how long you've been around.”
“Being honest with myself is something I like. I am happy that I don't make excuses when I make a mistake. This is a good way to improve in the fastest way.”
“I think I am my own biggest critic, yeah.”
“My ambition is to one day be in Formula 1 and hopefully become world champion.”
“We need to keep working very hard.”
“At the beginning, I didn't want to arrive at a big team like Ferrari and say: 'Ok, I want the car like this' - I just wanted to try and adapt to the car and then see if I wanted to make some changes.”
“With less and less races people will want to take more risks.”
“As soon as I signed with Ferrari it was clear to me that people expected big performances from me. Even though people were realistic enough to see that I was only starting my second season and that I still had a lot to learn.”
“Before arriving at Ferrari, I had no idea how important it is for a Formula 1 team to be successful to have a successful relationship with their fuel and lubricants partner.”
“I rarely focus on the result only just because I think if I work well the results will come and if we work well as a team the results will come.”
“Twitch is something I never thought I'd enjoy and I never saw myself doing. But actually I really enjoyed it. For the people that follow me, I think it's the closest you can get to the real me.”
“It is vitally important for me to concentrate on myself, on the work that I have to do on the track and off it with the engineers, without really thinking about what people are expecting from me on the outside.”
