Charles Leclerc<\/a> is now an eight-time Formula 1<\/a> race winner and driver for Scuderia Ferrari<\/a>. However, before this, he was a young boy from Monaco whose family had to make sacrifices, including his brothers giving up karting for him. Now, all three Leclerc brothers have been able to drive F1<\/a> cars. <\/b><\/p>\n

The Leclerc family was not in a position to put all three kids through karting. In fact, Charles Leclerc had to score several sponsorships very early on to be able to continue. His two brothers, Lorenzo Tolotta-Leclerc and Arthur Leclerc, were unable to contine their kating careers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Later on, when Charles was further into his career, Arthur was able to begin karting again and even worked his way up to Formula 2<\/a>. He currently drives in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup for AF Corse. He is also a part of the Ferrari family.<\/p>\n

At the 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Arthur drove in FP1 alongside Charles. Now, their older brother has also had his time in a Ferrari Formula 1 car.<\/p>\n

Leclerc’s time at Paul Ricard<\/p>\n

Posted to Instagram, Lorenzo said, “Did not expect to start this week driving an F1 ! Thanks to these two @charles_leclerc\u00a0&\u00a0@arthur_leclerc\u00a0\u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0fAmazing feeling and unforgettable experience surrounded by the best \ud83e\udd70\ud83e\udd79.”<\/p>\n

The three brothers were joined at the Paul Ricard circuit with their partners and mother. You can see pictures and video footage of Lorenzo’s time below.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Charles also took to Instagram to share the occasion, sharing Lorenzo’s post to his story with the caption, “Now all 3 Leclerc brothers have driven a Formula One car. What a day,” he wrote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Charles Leclerc is now an eight-time Formula 1 race winner and driver for Scuderia Ferrari.
