Charles Leclerc revealed that his favorite movie is “Harry Potter.” He amusingly added that he looks like Harry Potter when he wears glasses, prompting a flurry of playful comments and laughter from his fellow drivers, including George Russell, who began imagining Leclerc in various scenes from the iconic movie series.
Charles Leclerc, the talented Scuderia Ferrari driver, may have a surprising favorite movie, but his on-track persona is anything but mild. Despite his charming and unassuming appearance.
The comparison between Leclerc and the iconic wizard from J.K. Rowling’s magical world is not just about the glasses. It’s his combination of youthful charm and fierce competitiveness that draws fans to see a resemblance, making him a wizard on the track in his own right.
How will be Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton’s Relationship at Ferrari?
In the 2023 United States Grand Prix, both Hamilton and Leclerc faced disqualification. Hamilton lost his P2 finish, while Leclerc slipped from P6. The reason? Their cars’ skid blocks (also known as planks) were found to be non-compliant with regulations. The technical breach led to a reshuffling of the results, with Lando Norris benefiting from their misfortune.
Fast forward to 2025, and Hamilton is set to don the iconic red overalls of Ferrari. The seven-time world champion will partner with Leclerc, aiming to break Ferrari’s title drought. The paddock buzzes with anticipation as these two talents prepare to share data, insights, and track space.
In an interview, Leclerc expressed his thoughts on having Hamilton as a teammate: “So I think anybody on the grid would love to have Lewis as a teammate, as everybody will learn a lot from him. But yeah, again, I’m happy where I am and with Carlos. It’s a great relationship too”. Leclerc acknowledges Hamilton’s prowess but remains committed to his current partnership with Carlos Sainz.
