“what are u trying to sell: is it tickets or the sustainability story?”
max criticizing the order of the f1 calendar, saying it would be better to start in asia, then move to europe & to the US.
being a charles fan is literally a one-way ticket to religious devotion because i have never met a leclerc fan who doesn’t immediately fall on their knees and pray for charles leclerc
if i had a nickel for every time charles was being hunted down by two drivers from a UK-based team i’d have two nickels. which isn’t a lot, but MERCEDES AND MCLAREN THREW EVERYTHING AT HIM, CHARLES LECLERC COPED BRILLIANTLY, HE WON IN 2019, HE WINS IN 2024
now all i can remember is that one tweet saying max won’t even care he’s not on pole as long as charles is on pole because he lost that dawg in him and the only dog he wants to be is leo leclerc 😭😭😭
having charles and lewis as teammates will be interesting because they cannot lie 😭 they’ll giggle and smirk and that’ll be all we need to confirm something
“no overtakes”? “gifted win”?
mind you, all the teams know how essential qualifying is in monaco. it’s up to the drivers to qualify well because this is a driver-dependent track.
charles leclerc qualified best where it mattered most and he controlled the pace the entire race.
god no wonder max verstappen rates charles leclerc so highly… his whole life he’s been haunted by the crazy monegasque boy that he met when he was five years old
he has that little sparkle in his eyes that comes out when he’s about to take another junior driver under his wing because he inherited seb’s paternal instincts
also can we talk about how sacred this weekend was… the blood moon, ferrari’s determination, all the number 16s that popped up for everyone… it’s like the universe was trying to give us signs and we absolutely knew but we didn’t want to risk anything 😭
love how it took 16 years between michael and seb and then 7 years between seb and charles… like… 16, then 1+6… i know we all know charles is predestined but it’s getting kind of freaky
i fear no one will ever top charles leclerc’s contract renewal announcement… he made his own song for it, served face throughout the video, and on the days leading up to it, ferrari tweeted the iconic “born in monaco, raised in maranello” tweet for him 🥺❤️
charles in pink is cute… but i cannot deny the possibility of it actually being a white shirt that he accidentally mixed with his thousands of rosso corsa clothes
piero ferrari asking leo if charles would win in monaco and making fun of charles’ italian spelling mistake he did in imola radio “vincessemo”

Ferrari: a Baku senza novità ma con un Leclerc che potrebbe essere il vero upgrade, dopo la splendida Monza. Il prossimo e ultimo aggiornamento significativo sarà all’ala anteriore. Tra pochi giorni tornerà operativa la galleria del vento.

okay but can we talk about how ferrari have been moving… the moment charles’s car indicated it had the slightest of issues they were on it. they changed his engine without alarming anyone and moved on to focus on quali.
i think it’s poetic justice that the scuderia ferrari renaissance began with charles leclerc threatening to leave and ferrari literally having to scramble to keep him. like of course it’s il predestinato who sets off the chain of events to ferrari’s rebirth.
fun fact: in 2019 alone—charles’s second year in f1 and first year in ferrari—he earned SEVEN poles, which is still two more than his current teammate has had in his entire career. and this was when he was driving next to four-time world champion sebastian vettel. pure talent ❤️
you can tell that charles has been raised with so much love because it radiates within every person close to him. even throughout the vlog you could see the warmth and love he exudes towards anyone and everyone. he is such a special person ❤️🤍
verstappen, chamomile ice cream, to calm him down a little?
CL: no, what im interested in is beating him on the track to start with, and that's what we're working on, so i'll also give him the flavor he likes and then we'll try to beat him on the track."
damn are you guys actually proud that your driver looks happy with a p12 💀 charles would literally rather retire than be happy with anything other than p1
no but now it makes sense why lec has been in the works since 2022… bc he wasn’t just opening a shop, he was planning on distributing it to supermarkets okay business king
also thank you to bryan for:
1) constantly praising charles
2) cheering charles on throughout the race
3) reassuring him he did an amazing job regardless
4) being an amazing communicator overall
people had doubts but you have proven yourself just one weekend in 🙏
bryan: "and say hi to the fans"
charles: "yeah, them...they're always here. so beautiful. but it would've been even more beautiful if we would've won, it'll come...
bryan: "no but they'll understand"

don’t let these cute charlie pictures from an f2 session distract you from the fact that he terrorized the 2017 grid as a rookie and dominated the field from the get-go with so much talent ❤️🤍
🎙️| Carlos Sainz:
“We had a strange change in behaviour from the car from FP1 to SQ.”
“We were struggling quite a lot with the grip, and to put laps together, so it’s something we need to look into.”
saying a driver could win from pole in monaco is like saying you can be a physicist if you graduate with a physics degree. like duh you could do it but the hard part is getting the pole you fool
honestly george is so real for that because if i grew up with the other drivers i’d just save some old photos for blackmail too… like if you impede me in qualifying you best believe i’m pulling up that embarrassing picture of you from sixteen years ago
being a charles fan is so interesting… we have literally gone through some of the worst race scenarios (the trinity of dnf, dns, dsq) and some of the best (first two back-to-back wins, grand chelem, monza 2019) so we should by all means be ready for anything but we never are 😭
