Charles Leclerc announced on Wednesday that he has signed a new contract with Ferrari. The Monegasque driver is extending his commitment to the Italian team, which he joined in Formula 1 in 2019. His previous contract was due to expire at the end of the year.
A lease spanning several seasons
The exact duration of the new contract has not been specified. Ferrari and Leclerc have only indicated that the agreement covers "the coming seasons". This agreement confirms a multi-year commitment. Leclerc therefore remains linked to Ferrari beyond the current season.
Charles Leclerc accompanied this announcement with a message: "I'm here to stay."At 28, the Monegasque driver continues his story with Scuderia Ferrari. He remains one of the key figures in the Ferrari Formula 1 project.
Ferrari locks in its driver
With this extension, Ferrari secures Charles Leclerc's future and avoids an uncertain end to his contract. The driver will continue to race for the Italian team for the next few seasons. This announcement comes just before the Monaco Grand Prix, a particularly special event for Leclerc, who was born in the Principality.
8 wins and 27 pole positions
Since joining Ferrari in 2019, Charles Leclerc has achieved 8 wins, 27 pole positions, and 52 podium finishes with the Scuderia. The Monegasque driver secured his victories at Spa and Monza in 2019, then in Bahrain, Melbourne, and Spielberg in 2022, before winning in Monaco, Monza, and Austin in 2024. His best championship result remains a second-place finish in the 2022 World Championship, followed by a third-place finish in 2024, though he has yet to win a world title.
