Disaster has stuck. From what would have been a perfect weekend for the youngster Charles Leclerc has all gone down the drain. He took an amazing pole from his heavily experienced teammate, Sebastian Vettel. He then lost the lead at the start but soon gained it back after a remarkable move on Bottas and Vettel. And while he led the entire race after that, Ferrari [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuderia_Ferrari] power unit had other plans for him. On lap 48, he reported that he was losing power and rightfully so. His turbo power was cut off which meant he was overtaken by Hamilton very easily. From what it looks right now, he will be overtaken by Bottas and Verstappen right before the end of the race. Such a tragic end to a man who drove way above his age. He might not have taken his first victory at Bahrain, but he surely will climb at the top of the podium very soon. As for his teammate, Sebastian Vettel, Bahrain, we hope will be an eye opener. What an utterly chaotic race he has had. [http://www.essentiallysports.com/vettel-ruins-chance-of-ferrari-podium-at-bahrain-gp-2019/] 

Charles Lelcerc, while being at the lead, faced a power issue which meant he
lost his lead to the two Mercedes. What a disaster for him!

<h2>Bahrain Grand Prix 2021 Winners, Qualifying, Circuits, Track</h2>
The Bahrain Grand Prix has become synonymous with F1 fans over the years as one of the opening rounds of the Championship season. Starting off as a day race back in 2004, the Sakhir International Circuit embraced nightfall in its 10th Anniversary race and has remained a night race ever since.

F1 raced on the Bahrain track's "outer layout", consisting of a fairly simple layout and long straights. Many fans and drivers dubbed the outer track an "oval", given the nature of its configuration. With minimal corners, there was plenty of overtaking opportunities in round 2 of the Bahrain race.

Michael Schumacher won the inaugural Bahrain Grand Prix in 2004, accompanied by Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button on the podium.

In 2011, F1 canceled the Bahrain event amidst the Bahraini uprising. Despite much opposition, F1 decided to hold a race at the Sakhir International Circuit the following year.

Ever since first experimenting with a night race in Bahrain in 2014, F1 has made the change stick for subsequent events. Bahrain arguably provides the best F1 spectacle amidst the desert under the lights.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Bahrain replaced the Australian GP as the season opener for the 2021 season. Lewis Hamilton won the first race of the 2021 season ahead of Max Verstappen and Valtteri Bottas.

<h2>Track Details</h2>
The Sakhir International Circuit features a 5.412km long track designed by legendary F1 architect Hermann Tilke. The outer circuit, commonly referred to as 'The Oval,' features a 3.543km track minus the tricky braking zones and twisty bits of the conventional circuit.

One unique albeit frustrating aspect of the track are the sprawling run off areas, which ensures drivers aren't punished, should they make mistakes.

Unlike most F1 circuits, the Sakhir track features 3 DRS zones, which promote countless overtaking opportunities across the lap.
<h2>Where to watch</h2>
Those in Africa can tune in to SuperSport, Australians can watch the race on Fox Sports Channels or One.

Viewers from India and Asia can watch the race on Star Sports and Fox Sports Channels respectively.

<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Charles Leclerc 2024: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
Charles Leclerc is what Ferrari calls the future. Signing a contract with the team till 2024, he has certainly turned heads at the Maranello-based outfit by showing them what he is capable of. He made his debut in 2018 for the Alfa Romeo-Sauber team. Coming from Monaco, he is only the fourth driver from the principality to make the drive in Formula 1 and the first since <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivier_Beretta" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olivier Beretta,</a> who made his debut in 1994. He began to impress everyone right off the bat.

There were a lot of doubts regarding Ferrari's signing for 2019. Many people suspected that he wasn't ready and that his much-experienced teammate, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Sebastian Vettel</a>, would undermine him on a grand scale. However, he ended up coming out on top, claiming P4 in the Drivers' Championship ahead of the German.

The very next season, despite Ferrari's struggles, Leclerc continued to carry the outfit on his shoulders all by himself. In the process, Leclerc also dominated against his championship-winning teammate for the second straight season, who later quit driving for Ferrari. The Monegasque, however, is facing a stern challenge from his new teammate, Carlos Sainz.

Leclerc also has one of the coolest helmets on the grid despite opting for a minimal design, with the color white dominating most parts of it.

<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Charles Leclerc: Stats and On-track Achievements</h2>
Charles Leclerc showcased his class and strength from the junior classes, winning the 2016 GP3 Series and the 2017 Formula 2 Championships. He was personally picked up by Sergio Marchionne.

While in the 2018 season, his best finish was P6, his performance in the 2019 season was on another level. Leclerc took 7 pole positions and 2 race wins, including the highly prestigious Italian Grand Prix at Monza, giving the Tifosi something to smile about. He was ready to challenge Sebastian Vettel from the very first day, very eager to dethrone his number 1 status. He did manage to do that, eventually. Leclerc also beat Vettel by an even bigger margin in 2020. However, in 2021, the lead Ferrari driver had a shocking defeat to his new teammate, Sainz. After an intense battle, Sainz pipped Leclerc in the driver's standings after an astounding podium at the season finale in Abu Dhabi.

[caption id="attachment_2092554" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-2092554 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-09-02T150835Z_1926457669_UP1EJ921628MH_RTRMADP_3_MOTOR-F1-ITALY.jpg" alt="Ferrari drivers Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc" width="1920" height="1312" /> Formula One F1 - Italian Grand Prix - Autodromo Nazionale Monza, Monza, Italy - September 2, 2023.

Over the course of 85 race starts, Leclerc has scored 4 wins, 16 podiums, and racked up 646 points. He finished fourth in the Drivers' Championship in 2019. Leclerc also finished in P8 in 2020, as opposed to his teammate's P13. And lately, in 2021, Leclerc almost out-scored his teammate but ended up losing the lead at the Abu Dhabi GP.

The 2022 season was Leclerc's best yet as he went on to claim 3 race wins over the course of the season. He was level on points with Sergio Perez at 290 points each heading into the final race of the 2022 season. The Ferrari driver pulled off an overtake on Perez who started ahead of him in P2. In doing so, he secured 2nd place in the Drivers' Championship as well as P2 for Ferrari in the Constructors' Championship. The 2023 season witnessed a downward trajectory in terms of performance as he finished 5th in the Drivers' Championship with 206 points, 6 points ahead of his teammate Carlos Sainz who finished 7th. However, it was Sainz who achieved Ferrari's only victory in the season.
<h3 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Best Moments of Charles Leclerc</h3>
One of the most hilarious moments of Leclerc's career is his team radio exchange following a shunt at Baku during qualifying in 2019. He yelled, <em>"I am stupid."</em> Since then, a lot of fans would often bring up this radio message every time the Monegasque puts his Ferrari into the wall.

There is also the Banana costume he showed up in during one of his live Twitch streams which subsequently garnered him an insane amount of popularity. In the 2019 season, Leclerc became the youngest driver to receive the FIA pole position trophy for the most qualifying poles. He won the Crypto.com Overtake of the Year Award for his last-lap overtake of Sergio Perez at the inaugural Las Vegas GP in 2023.
<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Charles Leclerc: Net Worth</h2>
As per <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/race-car-drivers/charles-leclerc-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Celebrity Net Worth</a>, Charles Leclerc has a Net Worth of $40 million. His performance in his debut season prompted Ferrari to sign him for a <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ferrari-confirm-their-future-with-charles-leclerc-through-a-5-year-contract-and-fat-pay-cheque/" target="_self" rel="noopener">massive five-year extension</a> that will see him at Maranello till the end of the 2024 season.

From <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.gpfans.com/en/articles/4026/formula-1-driver-salaries-2019/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$3.5 million in 2019</a>, his salary shot up to a whopping <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.racefans.net/2020/03/30/how-much-are-f1-drivers-earning-in-2020-and-should-their-fees-be-capped/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$10 million per annum</a>, in 2020. The rising trend followed into the 2021 season as well. <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/brettknight/2023/11/29/formula-1s-highest-paid-drivers-2023/?sh=493528e5463f" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Forbes</a> reported Leclerc to obtain an on-track salary of $14 million from Ferrari in 2023 and an additional $2 million through bonuses.
<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Leclerc : Endorsements</strong></h2>
Leclerc is largely backed by Scuderia Ferrari and the Ferrari Driver's Academy. Though he is still in the early stages of his career, his age will give him a chance to earn more sponsors and backers.

Leclerc was also sponsored by <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.richardmille.com/friends-and-partners/charles-leclerc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Richard Mille</a> in his junior days. He is destined to attract the interest of a lot of sponsors who would be looking to take advantage of his long-term Ferrari deal in order to establish their own name.

In May 2020, Charles Leclerc <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://twitter.com/Charles_Leclerc/status/1262352802803789826?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced his partnership</a> with the Italian luxury fashion brand Giorgio Armani. Leclerc is the brand ambassador for Armani and its Made to Measure Line. He also mostly prefers using Ray-Ban sunglasses amid the American-Italian company's partnership with Scuderia Ferrari. In 2022, EA Sports made Leclerc their first-ever F1 ambassador.

<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center">Personal life</h2>
Leclerc was born and brought up in Monte Carlo, Monaco, one of the most elite places on the earth. However, despite growing up in one of the richest principalities around the world, Leclerc didn't possess an abundance of wealth. He had positive influences from his father–Hervé Leclerc, and former F1 driver Jules Bianchi during his childhood. Hervé was a former race car driver himself and competed in Formula 3 during the 80s and 90s. Sadly, the Monegasque lost those close to him in tragic circumstances.

His close friend and godfather Jules Bianchi passed away following a heavy crash at the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix. A few years later in 2017, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.autosport.com/f2/news/130319/leclerc-emotional-pole-was-for-late-father" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Leclerc's father passed away</a> following a prolonged battle with an undisclosed illness.

Leclerc, then went on to win the Belgian GP that weekend and dedicated what was his first F1 victory to the late Frenchman.

Charles' mother's name is Pascale Leclerc.

There were also speculations that Leclerc could be a blood relative of Charles Sobhraj and Marie Andre Leclerc, the French serial killer duo, but, the truth is, No! Charles isn't related to them in any way.
<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Leclerc: Car Collection</strong></h2>
Being a Ferrari driver, it doesn't come as a surprise that Leclerc has a stunning collection of Prancing Horse cars. They include the first ever Ferrari hybrid, SF90 Stradale which produces 986HP, and a custom Ferrari 488 Pista Spider with a black paint job along with red &amp; white stripes down the center to denote the Monaco flag. Apart from these two Ferrari beauties, Leclerc also owns a Ferrari Roma and a Ferrari 812 Superfast. Another prized possession of his is the Ferrari 812 Competizione Aperta. The personalized white model boasts a 6.5L V12 which can generate more than 800HP. The crown jewel in his collection though is the Ferrari SF90, his F1 car from the 2019 season in which he crossed the chequered flag to take the first F1 win of his career. Apart from the Ferrari cars, the Monegasque also owns numerous other cars, including a Land Rover Discovery, a Rolls Royce Wraith, a Jaguar XF, a McLaren GT, and the $3 million Bugatti Chiron.
<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Leclerc: Foundations and Charity Work</strong></h2>
Leclerc <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="http://www.fondationprincessecharlene.mc/en/news/f1-driver-charles-leclerc-named-ambassador-of-the-princess-charlene-of-monaco-foundation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">is the brand ambassador</a> for the Princess Charlene Foundation. Princess Charlene is the princess of Monaco and the wife of Prince Albert II. The foundation aims to help children develop sporting values. Prior to her marriage to Prince Albert, she was an athlete herself. Recognizing Leclerc's talent, she made him the ambassador.

In 2019, Leclerc teamed up with Sebastian Vettel to <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.espn.in/f1/story/_/id/26836139/ferrari-drivers-sebastian-vettel-charles-leclerc-team-cristiano-ronaldo-charity-football-match" target="_blank" rel="noopener">play a football match</a> for a charity aimed at cancer research.
