Charles LeClerc's Personal Ferraris

I've only ever seen his Pista. I like his SF90 spec a lot too. Subtlety always wins with me.

Carlos Sainz recently acquired his TM 812 Competizione.

 

Is this a list of cars he owns...or Ferraris he has been lent and was seen driving around Maranello/to races?

The Pista is his for sure...not sure he'd have an SF90 on Italian Plates, or would drive an 812 from Monaco to Maranello...?

 

Theres probably no better indicator of what the best drivers cars are, than what F1 drivers own personally.

 

Not when the cars they have are apart of their contracts, or supplied for use by the manufactures they drive for.

 

The article lists his non Ferraris

"The next car I bought was when I actually got in to Formula One. I was 19 years old, I bought a Ferrari. It was yellow, a 355 GTS, second-hand, it was two years old and I absolutely loved it. I remember I went to go and view the car at the dealership and wasn’t allowed to test drive it because I wasn’t old enough for their insurance, so I had to sit in the passenger seat and get a feel for it. I put the money down, did the paperwork and then drove it home. And I still own that car. I had it in Monaco for a few years, I used to cruise around the Cote d’Azur in my 355, so many memories. I’ll definitely keep it forever, that engine is just a beautiful sounding thing, it’s like music. I know Dario Franchitti has one with a big loud exhaust on it, I might do the same.

 

Is their any evidence of him owning the Rolls Royce Wraith, a Bugatti Chiron and McLaren GT?

 

Article says owned. Multiple outlets ran the exact same article, including PlanetF1, not that that means much given present day journalism.

 

Well its strange that their is not one single photo of him driving or even in any of these cars, but an endless amount of him in the Ferrari's we know he has owned and borrowed. And if Planet F1 reported it, it's almost guaranteed to be BS.

 

There was a 1986 original owner Porsche auctioned on BAT last week. Had approx 2600 mi. Probably very few people ever saw the owner drive it.

 

Can I ask why anyone gives a sh*t about what cars someone else owns? I saw another thread here about some sultan of swing owning cars... I mean, I don't get it. Who cares, right? Maybe I'll start a thread about a guy named Joe that lives in the western hemisphere on some street in some town that does some job and list his cars... will someone care? Why?

 

This is a Ferrari site and the thread is about a current Ferrari F1 driver and his Ferraris. So yeah . . . why would anyone care!

 

oh, I didn't know who he was... but now that I do, still don't care lol... I never understood people following the careers of other people. Actors, sport people, musicians, race car drivers etc-- I bet those people aren't following your career or talking about you or your job in the locker room or back stage.

 

I heard Tom in Winchestertonfieldville is up for a $1.50 raise next week if his sales metrics are above last month! He might move up from the Civic to an Accord!

 

exactly-- love it. -- happy others share my twisted perspectives of things. Thanks Dew, keep us updated.

 

I could care less about most celebrities and what car they are driving, especially modern cars as it’s likely about self promotion or advertising. This is different. I imagine f1 drivers are unimpressed with the speed and performance of most/all road cars, and if they were going to buy a classic car for the same reasons we love them, it really means they are pretty special since they have access to anything out there.

I think it’s awesome that Jensen button has a 355. He had a 993 c4s too. It’s cool to think one of the worlds greatest drivers has the same taste in cars as me.

 

I believe his 993 c4s was acquired much later and later sold on BAT. He still has his 355 .

His good buddy James Rossiter (Force India test driver) also currently owns a 355, which went thru a nearly full restoration at Alcala Technology last year.

Was the owner of this Porsche a current internationally famous F1 Ferrari driver, that's every public move is watched and recorded by people / fans with phones (must suck),that also lives and originally comes from Monaco?

 

Charles's Pista is a cool and personal spec ( Monaco Flag stripe). I love cars, and I love Ferrari's, and his Pista is lovely and interesting, and gave me a little bit of enjoyment to see. Car guy and Ferrari F1 fan stuff I guess..

Yet you are here, commentig on people commenting on other peoples cars. Lots of other threads to shine bright with sensless comments, why hipocrisy here? Feeling superior?
Asking out of couriosity

 

Lol, no not at all… I see no hypocrisy. Mostly my comments are for different perspective humor.. but this is two different things you’re mentioning.

If you and I play basketball and we talk to each other about playing basketball, I find that normal. .. but if you and I stand around talking about Larry Bird playing basketball, I don’t see the sense in that.

Or in easier words, you and I and everyone else on here talking about our cars and passions makes perfect sense but us taking about someone else’s passion for Ferrari or talking about their cars WITHOUT them here, makes no sense to me.

Make sense?

"Leclerc is also reported to own multiple other cars in his day-to-day garage, including a Land Rover Discovery, a Rolls Royce Wraith, a Bugatti Chiron, a Jaguar XF and a McLaren GT"

I wouldn't call any of those "drivers cars"

McLaren GT is interesting. buy your competitor's worst product?
