A Local Hero Finally Wins
Charles Leclerc was born in Monte Carlo and grew up on the streets of the Monaco circuit. Driving for Ferrari, he suffered years of heartbreak at home: in 2021 he took pole but a driveshaft problem stopped him starting, and in 2022 Ferrari strategy errors dropped him from pole to fourth.
In 2024 he finally won from pole, becoming the first Monegasque driver to win his home race since Louis Chiron in 1931, a wait of 93 years. Because overtaking is so difficult on Monaco's narrow streets, pole position is crucial.
An emotional Leclerc dedicated the win to his late father, and Prince Albert II and the royal family presented the trophy. Fans across Monaco celebrated their local hero.
