Leclerc scored more points in his rookie season than Ericsson scored in his whole career
💀dang
damn! at least he seems to be doing better since moving to Indycar, even won a couple of races this season.
@@Jackinacox goes to show just how tough F1 is to race in
Dark truth
Ultimate bruh moment
Pretty good
How can I not expect tommo in a sharl lecrec video
Egg
Thanks to this answer now I don't have to see the vid :)
Indeed. Pretty good
Butt stuff
the fact that he had never finished a race in monaco since joining the F1 grid is mind-boggling.
Even in f2 he didn't finished it
What happened in 2019? Another crash? Reliability?
@@magnustan841 2019 he got knocked out in Q1 because Ferrari thought he’d be clear, but he wasn’t and he didn’t do a second run.
Then in the race he was basically pissed off and tried to make a bunch of dive bombs and eventually punctured his tire and damaged his floor so he ended up retiring later on.
@@magnustan841 Ferrari failed him in Quali ( basically they didn’t send him out and ran out of the time in the end) He was out in Q1. Starting P16 in a Ferrari, he chose a really aggressive way to race, did a stunning overtake in the street of the Monaco but got a tire puncture and had to retire.
shows how unlucky this dude is 😭
Vettel’s testimony at the press conference was magnificent. I couldn’t help but Imagine how much Charles must have been holding a shit-eating grin. Seriously, Imagine a guy like Vettel praising your abilities for 2 minutes in front of the whole world.
Wasn't my proudest fap 😢
@@goodputin4324broooooo WHAT😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭
"When Marcus Ericsson took him out... without being anywhere near him".
Bruh.
"I think Ericsson hit us"
Ericsson was trash. Flattered Leclerc and made the car look slower than it actually was.
@@Firebolt1729 and kubica / latifi flatter russel. your point being?
@Toasted' Nugget_' Why are you getting so mad and what does Vettel have to with anything
Just leave him alone, he knows what he's doing
Charles leclerc, the first ever driver to have his life unquestionably saved by the halo safety device.
First F1 driver. I remember hearing about an F2 driver being saved a few months earlier in One of the Barcelona races
@@kaspercederlund4393 it was fukuzumi and someone else
and thank fuck for that. idk what all of us would’ve done if it went differently wow
Yes it definitely saved his life
The kinda poetic part about it being that the halo was introduced after what happened to Jules Bianci, so in a way his godfather was quite literally looking out for him one last time@@maissa1983
Underrated season. Charles had a slow start but quickly found his footing and went on a run of consistent points finishes.
Yep. He was battling with much better cars from Baku onwards and with how much that Sauber car progressed as the season gone by with their in-season development, he finished best of the rest quite a few times particularly at the end of the season.
People keep acting like the Sauber was a backmarker, It was a great season for Leclerc but get real
Underrated season might be true, I'm a big fan of Leclerc, but I think Russell's current year was better, or the previous
@@emilekaram7148 Those weren’t George’s rookie years though…
@@motorsportfanboy7769still it's like a rookie, next year he will be a pro

@@davidquarells4389 damn you're either blind or dense
YESS I WAS LIKE WHATTT
The most impressive thing about Leclerc in 2018 that's often forgotten was how well he performed against Alonso. Alonso ran rings round the other midfield drivers but not Leclerc, he wasn't intimidated by Alonso in the slightest and gave him some really hard times.
If Ferrari can actually give him a decent car, I truly believe he can take the fight to Max! Leclerc is a BEAST.
yeah only on Saturdays lmao
@@troll_486 Fitting name
yours not so much
@@troll_486 he just outpaced his team mate by 25 seconds in COTA and Daniel Ricardo in the McLaren . finished 10 seconds behind a Redbull the fastest car that weekend in cota . Lmao .
yeah, that only proves that thing
he has to have his day to have that awesome performance, no consistency from him
Sainz is super-consistant, although not as fast as Charles, but still is almost on level in points in his first year in ferrari which was built around Chalres since around late 2019
Im not saying he's bad but totally overrated by some people
Monza 2018 and monza 2019 perfectly show the differences between Kimi and Leclerc, Kimi defends but he didn’t feel he needed to prove anything. Charles did
Age had caught up with kimi. Prime kimi could have won in 2017 and 2018.
@@sahilbanerjee4421 Obviously but that's not what is being said here so don't get defensive.
Kimi's a clean driver. and Merc's strategy was damn good. I dont think there was anything he could do.
@@sahilbanerjee4421 Faster than Vettel??
@@emilekaram7148 Prime Kimi (i.e. Mclaren days) would've outqualified Seb at Ferrari. Races idk.
Leclerc really came to my attention with his brilliant and ongoing dog fights with Alonso throughout the season (and he often out drove Alonso).
Leclerc before joining Ferrari:
2014 - 2nd in Formula Renault 2.0 Alps debut season (best rookie, Nyck de Vries was the champion).
2015 - 4th in Formula 3 European debut season (best rookie, over George Russell and Lance Stroll, Antonio Giovinazzi was 2nd in 0the champion). Also he was 2nd in the Macau GP of that year (best rookie, behind Felix Rosenqvist who was the champion of F3 European that year and had 3 previous Macau GPs).
2016 - 1st in GP3 debut season, beating Alexander Albon.
2017 - 1st in Formula 2 debut season.
2018 - 13th, beating his teammate Marcus Ericsson (a driver with several season of experience) during the whole season.
Yip, Charles' record through the ranks of motorsport speaks volumes. The guy is a class act - and bloody fast too!
2018 was my first full season watching F1, and his rookie season went completely under the radar for me. It definitely gave me a better understanding of how to follow young talent in the midfield cars. Leclerc needs the car, but he also needs Ferrari’s decision making to improve if they can ever win a title together
Hey a fellow 2018 f1 joiner here and I couldn’t agree more. I didn’t realize how car dependable this sport had become until 2019. I had watched here and there in the v8 era and saw post on Facebook so headed into it I had ZERO idea about Mercedes’ dominance. Let’s just say it’s feels even BETTER to have another team challenging this year, it’s my first real championship experience in my life and it’s THRILLING!
@@TANGYHATCHY Agree 100%. I had loosely followed F1 since 2010 and knew who Schumacher and Hamilton were even before that, but 2018 seems to be the entry point for a lot of young adult fans. Really exciting times for F1 right now
Same.
same here, joined in 2018. Was supporting Hamilton for the title, but we know how that title race ended. I was kinda bored too after seeing Hamilton win again and again, it reduced my excitement cus you're confident that he'll win.
I followed Leclerc in 2019 and after that season I'm a hardcore fan.
He got on my radar when he was already in F2 - tbh started following the series because of him :)
The story or Charles Leclerc is still to be written. He has shown class, but this new breed of competition has shown so much consistency AND class. Between Norris and Max, let alone Charles’s teammate Sainz and the more established guys who will be around for another half decade like Danny Ric. The competition during Leclerc’s career will be stiffer than ever.
if he had the 2018 ferrari hed be winning more races
And you didn’t even say Russel haha. Yea it’s a tough crowd.
@@clapdozecheeks9157 Nice joke
Sorry for the bad news but I dont think Danny Ric is gonna stay five more years. I think that after this contract with mclaren they will let him go. Im not hating on him, I like him too but hes 30+ already and new talent is knocking on the door.
@@Firebolt1729 How's that a Joke.
I became a big fan of Leclerc because of what he he did in 2018/2019. This season he has been quite unlucky, but he is still ahead of the very in-form Sainz. I think Norris has made the biggest step as a driver this season compared to the rest of the midfield drivers, but Leclerc has shown this season that when he is comfortable in the car no-one can match him (e.g. USA). I'm looking forward to the future, where hopefully we will be seeing Leclerc, Verstappen, Russell and Norris fighting it out for the championship.
Agree.. Great bunch of young drivers - Max, Charles, Lando and George. All in different teams.
Is it too much to ask for 4 teams to create a title challenging car?
@@kalpesh_p seems like it is, not every team has the best budget and resources to make the best car
@@avinash_8723 but these 4 teams do have
And are the biggest teams in F1 currently
So unless they do have a flawed car they should be making a title contender
This is normal Sainz
@@Ochohades this is normal Leclerc
Watching this while Leclerc has a chance for the world title right now. My lord this guy is fast 💨.
Only on saturdays though.
@@Leonhavenify ouch...
Charles definitely deserves a chance to fight for the title in 2022.
We’re gonna look back at this Ferrari situation from 2018-2020 for a really long time. It really is unbelievable how quickly things turned from being Seb’s team, to Seb being pushed out and disrespected by Ferrari in just 2 years. All because Leclerc was developing way faster than anyone thought he would
I think 'disrespecting' is a bit harsh. Fact is, Seb was just seriously dropping the ball week in and week out. Along comes a kid with just one year's worth of experience, and completely outperforms Seb. If you were heading up Ferrari, what would you do? Ferrari even talked up Seb's no. 1 status in the team before 2019 started before it became apparent that it was just silly to keep pretending that was the case.
@@terkmadugga if I were Ferrari I wouldn’t fire him before the 2020 season even started and pretend as if it was them mutually parting ways. That whole season became a wash for Vettel because of it. Rather than trying to help Sebastian through the transition of adding Charles to the team they played favorites and Seb crumbled under the pressure of working in that environment, and I don’t blame him.
Edit: I also think a lot of people really over exaggerate how badly Charles beat Seb in 2019. Yes, he was better than him, but it wasn’t as big of a difference as Seb beating Kimi the previous year
@@terkmadugga I agree fully with everyone I just think when people say “disrespect” from Ferrari they mean the way Ferrari handled the entire situation, lying to the public about contract talks, the jabs at seb (this is why he was so petty about it) and just overall not seeming to care throughout the season for both drivers in terms of strategy and decision making. despite all this he still had the respect for Ferrari and sang them a whole farewell song.
@@cody95 youve got to remember, the start of 2020 was delayed because of covid, and it was probably better for Vettel in that he had the whole of the season to get his AM seat. Imagine if Ferrari told him they wouldn't extend his contract towards the end of the season - vettel might very well have retired. Fact is, Ferrari looked like the bad guys, but they did exactly what any rational team would do, and look to the future. Vettel really was exceptionally poor in 2019. I'm not just talking about the lack of pace, but the silly rookie spins is not what you'd expect to be paying a 4x world champion to do. It was probably better for both parties to be honest.
Regarding 2019, I really don't think people exaggerate Leclerc's performances Vs Vettel. Vettel definitely had strong drives, but I think his highs weren't as high as leclerc, and leclerc made far fewer mistakes. Toward the end of 2018, Kimi was arguably the stronger driver once it was announced he was leaving the team.
@nameless agreed as seb being my favorite driver. he does have this weird mindset where he always thinks he's the #1 even when he isn't. but i do get where he is coming from in ferrari, considering he was trying to bring them to the top and such, and yeah the errors were beyond unacceptable for someone like him. i do believe it has to do with the newer hybrid cars as he didn't do these mistakes in the v8 era but who knows? still shouldn't happen.
and yeah i can agree it goes both ways.
Leclerc being a equivalent to Max is a underrated driver, he just never got the car good enough .
BTW : He is always so sweet whenever u see him on internet or tv
Max is a beast especially in race day .The question is even if they have a winning championships car will they win? ferrari startegists should stel up
He had the second fastest car in 2019.
@@hoya1178 and he got 7 poles
@@hoya1178 not really, it was kind of back and forth. It was 3rd best in some races, and other’s it was the best, but Leclerc was so unlucky that season
@@hoya1178 That car was only able to fight red bull on high downforce tracks. And many of his wins were lost because of bad luck, or team strategy f*ckups. He still got a lot of podiums, and probably couldve finished 3rd in 2019 if it werent for the bad luck and that Crash with Vettel in brazil
Verstappen vs Leclerc is the championship battle we need their practically equals imo
Those two are def the future of the sport. They're gonna be battling it out for championships for years to come. And LFG Kyle Larson!
I think Lando is the spoiler their. It will be tasty
@@slimbrady6691 exactly
That is the battle of this decade
Two aggressive drivers who won't give each other any inch
This could be hunt vs lauda
They’re the Djokovic and Andy Murray of formula 1, born within weeks of each other, known each other since childhood, both incredibly talented, but one is always going to have the edge
its real
when seb was asked that question by reports, i think that was absolute class the way he answered them. what happened in the years to come is made slightly sad to me after seeing this. glad to see both of them happy in teams that love them.
I didn't realize there was so much drama over LEC replacing Kimi. I was just happy once they announced him cause how old is Kimi? It's the logical decision, you have to secure your future and at the end of LEC's gp2 season, l knew I wanted him in Ferrari. What LEC did at Abu Dhabi was amazing, but what impressed me even more was what he did at Baku. His dad had just died, not even time to grief and he won that race... That was on another level. I was so emotionally moved by that performance. He will be world champion
I enjoyed those Leclerc - Alonso fights in 2018 throughout the season so much. Bit like seeing Russell and Alonso but even more often
I started to watch F1 again in 2018 because of Leclerc. I saw a few races in the beginning of the season because I was excited to see Alfa Romeo back in F1 (even if it’s a Sauber) so after Baku I was like OMG that Charles is just incredible ! I follow him since then and now 4 years later he has finally a Ferrari to show all his talent at the front ! Incredible driver.
Unpopular opinion but in terms of natural talent Leclerc is on the same level as both Hamilton and Verstappen. He’s had generally tougher team mates than Verstappen has and has been consistently beating them. Also a lot more level headed
This is a late reply and Danni Ric is leaving F1 by all accounts as Norris has done a number on him but Max took 2 1/2 years before he started to manage to beat Danni on a regular basis. So Max hasnt had it all his own way which was implied by your comment. Also Marko said the only drivers on the same level of talent as Max was Hamilton and Norris
No
Max, Leclerc, Norris, Russell, Gasly and Schumacher. What a bright future F1 has, it is incredible. And the best part is, cars will be creating less dirty air so next year we may see magnificent racing between these drivers.
In 2022 the cars will have a tighter difference of performance, so everyone will fight more equaly
Max and Leclerc will be the two stars IMO , there all great drivers but I think it will be max and Charles who win championships , and lando and George might be like the jenson button type guy who wins 1 championship .
@@aidenwhelan3973 Possibly but we need Ferrari and Mclaren as fast as RB and Merc are, but imagine if Merc and RB's next car are both shitbox, with a good car Charles and Lando would dominate and i think they might overcome Max
@@aidenwhelan3973 I agree, but as a Leclerc fan I believe George may win more than one. Williams has improved while Aston, Alfa and Haas gone backwards, but watching what Russell does reminds me of Leclerc in 2018.
And Piastri !
Anyone after his phenomenal performance at the 2022 Australian GP where he won his first Grand Chelem and is 34 points away in the lead?
Anyone here after the abysmal run of race strategies and mistakes by Ferrari and Charles? And the season basically being over with Mercedes soon to be overtaking Ferrari and max running away with it
@@OveranalyzingEverything yeah ferrari botched it its unbelievable, Anyone here after the team forgot sainz's fourth tire?
I feel like charles is the most underrated driver on the current grid. Sounds crazy i know but there are peopel that rate sainz, norris russel and even gasly over him.
All of them wrong and norris being the most overhyped driver ever
Sainz is getting close but leclerc has more talent. Russel can prove himself next year and seems very fast. I think max, leclerc and russel are the biggest pure talents followed by sainz en norris. Then Gasly . But in terms of speed atm the nr 1. Obviously is max. Then russel, leclerc russel, gasly and sainz. Leclerc shouldve destroyed sainz in his rookie ferarri season but he didn't.
What? I thought most people agreed that Charles and Max are basically the most talented drivers on the grid by far. Sure Sainz, Norris and Russell are A tier but those two for me are just above the rest. They can pull out something magical every once in a while which the others don’t.
Anyone in the number 1 Ferrari seat isn't underrated by any means
Well you were right, this season he's been unstoppable, Leclerc with proper car is a damn monster.
Time proved that Leclerc's move to Ferrari was the right decision. He was ahead of Vettel and carried the Ferrari in those times when Seb are no more in his prime. Now, april 2022, he's leading the championship and Ferrari too. If he'll be the champion, I don't know, but he deserves that and I wish to see him winning the F1 championship.
He's been my favorite driver since F2. I remember watching that season I was always looking at the timing tower looking where Charles was and watching his times. That end of the season was absolutely insane, my favorite moment was in Brazil when he was gonna get knocked out in Q2 and it started raining at the end. 12th would've been very good anyway for a Sauber but he tried again and magically found time on a dampening track on slicks and somehow got into Q3. Then the next race at Abu Dhabi he couldn't wait to start fighting with the big boys so he got a great start and was actually keeping one of them behind. Then two races later in Bahrain, now at Ferrari, would've dominated his first F1 victory if not for a mechanical issue that dropped him to third. More wins and poles the Vettel in his first year at Ferrari showed signing him was no mistake, and I can't wait to see him in a title fight if Ferrari can find something in the new regs
F2 Baku was pretty special too. Along with his fight w/ Albon in Abu Dabhi.
@Josiah Petz how do you like the year so far? With a decent enough car, Charles is incredible (even more so, accounting for Red Bull's raw top speeds).
@@JeFF19AquiLeSs yep I'm loving this year
He has that driving style you just can't stop watching. By far my favorite driver on and off track, absolute unit.
Leclercs F1 career is filled with being underestimated. At first at Sauber. Then at Ferrari. Then I remember when I pointed out on reddit that he was pretty close to Vettel in his first season and would outperform him the following season, I got downvoted into oblivion. And after 2021 people keep saying how Sainz can keep up.
If Ferrari stays ahead, this will be his year to win the championship.
What he did in 2020's Ferrari was amazing too!
5:13 I think it's worth mentioning that the 2017 Sauber C36 was using an old engine from 2016 due to the chassis mounting not fitting to the redesigned Ferrari engines for 2017
Lmao what
Enjeniring
@@Fred_the_1996 The reason the C36 was slow was because they were using an interim engine, the car was designed around the 2016 engine coz Ferrari said they were just gonna upgrade the 2016 engine for 2017 but Ferrari ditched that idea the last minute and made a new engine from the ground up, Sauber was left in a dud because the Ferrari 062 engine didn't fit and they can't redesign the chassis because they didn't have enough time that year, therefore they were left running a slighlty underpowered engine for 2017, who knows how fast Sauber could've been if the car was running the same 2017 Ferrari engine that season
This guy proved right from the start that he is a champion in waiting. I am praying that Ferrari give Leclerc a car that is good enough to compete for the world championship. Cos Leclerc is pretty damn good!
This man, give him the car and he’ll deliver. pace is at Max/Lewis levels in a lot of cases, he’s like 90% there. Just needs to be kinder to himself and he’ll be a happier, faster driver.
Leclerc's progression up to this point feels like someone playing career mode in the F1 video game. Only he's doing it in real life against some of world's best drivers instead of an AI.
Best rookie season for me since Lewis's. Loved this video Aldas!
Except Leclerc didn't waltz into one of the top two teams on the grid, as Hamilton did. Charles as a rookie had to grind away in a car that was stuck well down the midfield - BIG difference.
In 2018, I wasn’t into F1 and seeing how good of a year he had and what he accomplished in his rookie year with a car that’s worse than alpine and aston martin this year(definitely don’t see them finishing P6/7 consistently) MAN CHARLES IS A BEAST
This video sums up pretty much why Leclerc should get the championship this year.
I'll come back for this.
7:01 Charles to merc,ohh what could have been,but still he became a legend in the Ferrari team. So win/win.
His qualifying in Brazil in mixed conditions made a believer out of me !
fun fact:
only him and Fangio got from Alfa Romeo to Ferrari
as an Alfa Romeo fan, Charles in 2018 was superb, and seeing him doing well with Alfa made me happy, and im happy for him till this day and i hope he will fight with Max, Lando and George next year
and now i just hope Alfa Romeo will be better in 2022, it hurts seeing them barely in the points...
He went from Alfa to Maserati
@@aydankhaliq2967 No he went from alfa to ferrari and then to maserati, thats where he said he didint like at ferrari, and he went to maserati as alfa wasent anymore in F1
So great to see an episode about my favorite driver! We so rarely see them on TH-cam. Did not know about that signing drama behind the scenes after the death of the Ferrari chief. I did know he swept the floor with Ericsson but not to the extent of the thrashing !
Leclerc is for me the best driver right now alongside Max. Maybe Russel can be in the mix as well, his Mercedes drive in Sahkir 2020 was amazing given the circumstances so that cleared my doubts if he could perform in a top car.
Leclerc for me however has one thing over anyone. Qualifying performance. I don't think even Max is faster than him over 1 lap.
I also can't really rate him for his 2020 season given Seb's circumstances, but I can rate him for 2019, and he proved he was up there with a world champion.
He did get 7 poles that year but 2 wins Ultimately what u need the most is racecraft thats where i think max edges him for eg Austria 2019, but i think sharl is now better at wheel to wheel racing compared to past
@@avinash_8723 It wasn't his fault the 2019 Ferrari was absolute crap in race pace... He did amazing wheel to wheel against Max in Silverstone. The kid has been good from the start.
@@avinash_8723 he finished 25 seconds ahead of Daniel and sainz in USA and got multiple podiums in 2020 Ferrari and beat a 4x world champ back to back in his rookie seasons at Ferrari . He finished p8 in 6th fastest car last season . Beat Norris for example who had 3rd fastest car that season . CONSISTENT points in a 2018 sauber p6 ! P7 ! P8 ! Try seeing the 8th fastest car this season get in the points . This man has race pace !
O.M.G.
I really hope there's gonna be a sequel of this video. Maybe for his first season. That's could be awesome
His best moment at alfa was with that snake during that foto session. You can see the fear in his face lmao
This was thorough, informative and well made
Thank you so much for the video and your effort, you put it incredibly. ❤️
This doesn't get talked about enough 🙌
I knew Leclerc was something special when he overtook Kmag around the outside on Lap 2 of the Russian GP
Great video. Really makes you understand why Ferrari has the best driver line up going into 2022 and how impressive Carlos Sainz's work in his first year at The Scuderia is.👍🏻
I remember how you put him in the Top 3 I believe in your Top 5 Drivers of the 2018 season so it's not surprising you have high praise for his rookie season 👌. But great vid as per
There was even rumours that they wanted to bring Charles in Ferrari as early as 2018 replacing Kimi. Imagine if we got to see that. Would have been amazing
Thx for the on screen data!
I can't wait to see the continuation of this video, talking about his first year at Ferrari
Life really said "okay he's doing too well let's humble him"
This is great - excellent work!
Charles, Norris, Russell, and Verstappen are the future of the sport. 2019 Charles gave a brilliant fight to Seb, even with questionable team orders. Very excited for the coming years and what these young drivers will provide us.
Oh goodie an Aldas video 😮💨
Great video got me so intruged that I forgot the video was only looking at his rookie season
Brilliant video man!!! Thanx!
It was an impressive rookie season. He's a fast learner, which is a great personality trait he uses to his advantage even today. Leclerc is already on Max' level, races like turkey last season or even in the states last weekend, shows his absolutely insane raw speed as he ridicules those around him. Capable of running on the limit with some of the most impressive quali laps I've seen, and getting stronger and stronger in terms of race management. Future world champion FOR SURE
Great video as per usual 👍🤘
I was a casual American Ferrari fan (bc of my Italian heritage if my last name didn’t already make that obvious) but watching Charles in 2018 knowing he was a Ferrari prospect is what sent me into full diehard F1 fandom. Baku was what caught my attention, and i was excited when they announced his promotion for 2019,. but good god his Q2 run at Interlagos on softs in the rain was an absolute jaw dropper and the moment I was 100% sold.
Bahrain 2019 was agonizing to watch. Not even just for tifosi, but almost everyone because of how utterly dominant he was in just his second race for the Scuderia. Austria was hard to swallow. Spa was hard to enjoy… but Monza… my fkn god was Monza the moment I knew I was helplessly addicted to this sport and would be for the rest of my life. The atmosphere that day was like what I can only compare to when I attended the NY Giants super bowl parades in 07 & 11.
Man oh man this video is just too good to watch on hindsight now, especially seeing all the doubters and naysayers get totally shut down. Charles is the chosen one for ferrari I truly believe it.
As usual a great video! Can you make a video on why Maurizio Arrivabene was replaced by binotto?
I have been into F1 for about 2 years now (grew up a NASCAR fan). Charles brought me to the sport, the kid has the mentality of driver 10 years older!
6:45: Charles may have been the " Mister Saturday" before George Russell??
One of my favorites ever this man is a great driver talented guy who will definitely win a championship at some point in his career hopefully soon
@@Adri33339 ha ferrarri, if you knew what they did to vettels. That team was driven by pure italian pride and politic subotages. Judging by the recent granprix of leclerc car and strategy: i mean 20 lap white into red then into another white after he asked to get red for the final stinct,wtf, even Ferrari doesnt stoop this low, i will not be surprised if they cast him out next using workplace bullying like they did vettel.
4:47
Charles be like:
I have destroyed the whole competition by simply marching
As a Ferrari fan i can't be happier, this guy is the real deal and his dream is to drive for us, i just hope the team don't fumble the bag like we did with Seb..
Merci beaucoup infiniment pour le contenu force Charles Leclerc incroyable n1
Best I’ve ever seen in F2 or GP2. I’m 65 so, I’ve seen a few.
Sauber Charles Leclerc was absolutely incredible
Hope we we can enjoy a lot of him, i feel sorry for wehrlein Who also was a big talent and also deserved more years. But Charles is an absolute beast.
Sometimes people forget how good Is Charles
At the Abu Dhabi GP 2018 he was P2 or P3 for some laps. I already knew at his F2 career he will go high and was already a big fan of him and still am.
What a lot of people forget is that Sauber finished 2018 with the 4th fastest car. Had there been 5 or 6 more races there's no telling what Charles could have done. I think he easily would have finished Top 10 in the Championship and Sauber would have probably gotten to 6th in the constructors too. Charles put it all it out there and did everything he had to do. I was so proud of him that season.
00:53 second turned me into your subscriber.I love the edit
Honestly I think Charles Leclerc should’ve made his debut with Ferrari straight away in 2018 (easy to say in hindsight lol). The season he’d had in F2 the year before (dominated the championship as a rookie), combined with the his previous achievements in my opinion would’ve justified Ferrari gambling on putting him in one of their cars in 2018.
In terms of natural talent I think Leclerc is top 3 on the grid, if Ferrari can get to Mercedes and RB’s level next year he’ll be a title contender for sure.
Need experience tho but i was thinking why ferrari didnt do a mid season driver change
you saw the furure coming man

Leclerc's 2018 rookie season is miles better than Russell's 2019.
A world champion in the making 👍👍
Can’t wait to see Charles, Max, and George battles in the future.
1:14 ferrari literally got him to drive the worst ferrari since 1980 at the time lol
Leclerc is a monster
Great video mate. Are you gonna make Verstappen's rookie season?
probably the most talented driver on the grid hopefully luck and hard work reward him with a f1 championship.
Rookie to Ferrari F1 in 3 years? Extraordinary.
14:41 Jani See you this december
I know that the disappointment of fans in that moment was high, but maybe this comment was too aggressive
Do Albon VS Latifi 2022
TommoF1 did a video looking at that if you’re interested
@@josiahboatengmyrie I know. I love tommo but I wanna know Aldas opinion is.
Latifi will obliderate Albon.
@@xynostasos9022 are you sure bro? 0_o. I think Albon beats Latifi in his first year with the team. Latifi in his third year I think improves his abilities quite a bit. But losing to Albon will put him on the hot seat.
2018 Alfa has a gorgeous livery 😍
My boy only needs a competitive car, the rest will follow
Your wish is Ferrari's command in 2022! :)
Pretty godly considering it was his rookie year
*Charles is a beast back then, and still is PERIOD.*
it was most definitely pretty good
Aldas will have the best rookie season . ✌️🏎️
Leclerc was a beast since his rookie season, just hope Ferrari give him a championship competitive car sooner rather than later. Also a good reminder how good the last Kimi season for Ferrari was. 12 podiums in 21 races and finished every race he did not DNF in the top 6. Also that pole in Monza.
