2022 marks their second year as the dynamic duo in red. The Spaniard joined his Monegasque teammate in 2021 after replacing Aston Martin bound Sebastian Vettel. Apart from being teammates, they share a wonderful relationship. This is mostly because they’re both young, competitive, and have a hunger for the crown. Yet, off the track, they remain the best of mates.
In an interview presented by F1 on Scuderia Ferrari, Charles conveyed his teammate’s talent, “I guess, I guess he can’t sing. Pretty bad probably, but he can sing.” Leclerc continued, “I think we’re sharing a lot of interest outside the racetrack which makes us closer too. Funny and open guy.”
