Leclerc is very much Ferrari born and bred. A graduate of the Ferrari Driver Academy, Leclerc debuted in Formula 1 with Sauber in 2018. After one season with the Ferrari-powered team, he was promoted to Scuderia Ferrari. Since then, he has won eight grands prix.
But the dream scenario of winning the World Championship in red has never been within reach.
So as Ferrari’s title chase fell flat in the early stages of F1 2025, and Leclerc’s frustrations grew, speculation began linking him with a move away from the team.
