Every Formula 1 driver is inherently an adrenaline junkie. These men drive cars with speeds over 200+ miles per hour every other weekend for a better part of a year. Hence, during the off-season, what they’re experiencing right now, these drivers seek thrill elsewhere. Charles Leclerc is no exception to such desires. However, the Ferrari pilot got told off by his boss because of it.

Leclerc, after finishing second in the 2022 championship season, is enjoying his holidays. Like most F1 drivers, he loves extreme sports. However, the Ferrari man is staying away from his favorite pastime, as he revealed in an interview with La Stampa.

The 25-year-old thrill-seeker indulged in an activity that concerned Ferrari’s boss, Mattia Binotto. “I jumped in with a parachute, but Mattia (Binotto) didn’t appreciate it,” revealed Leclerc. [Translated by Google]

Like an ideal driver, Leclerc even took the Ferrari boss’s concern into consideration and added, “now I watch extreme sports from the sofa at home.”

Seeking a thrill from the comfort of your home doesn’t have the same charm to it. However, the young Monegasque is considerate of the concerns of the Ferrari boss.

Safe to assume, Leclerc won’t be putting himself in harm’s way. He has a world champion to fight for, after all.

Charles Leclerc is impatient for his world championship title

Scuderia Ferrari is in a championship drought with their last title coming back in 2008. The president of Ferrari admits it’s a goal that needs to be achieved by 2026. However, Leclerc is far too impatient to wait till 2026.

“I know that the President (John Elkann) has said that it is a goal to be achieved by 2026, but as a pilot, I cannot think about this deadline, I am very impatient. I will prepare and do everything possible to be world champion in 2023,” said the Monegasque in an interview with Motorsport.com Italy [Translated by Google]
