Ferrari star Charles Leclerc has been pictured celebrating a recent engagement with his family in Monaco.
The Formula 1 driver took to Instagram to share a heartwarming post, toasting the engagement of his older brother, Lorenzo Leclerc, to fiancée, Dr. Charlotte Di Pietro.
Leclerc, currently third in the F1 drivers' standings, posted a series of photos from the intimate gathering, writing: “Celebrating the newly engaged 😘 @lorenzotl @charlotte2304. In the very best place as well @montecarlosbm ❤️.”
The Monegasque star was joined by his girlfriend, Alexandra Saint Mleux, with whom he shares an adorable pup, his mother, his younger brother and fellow racing driver Arthur Leclerc, as well as Arthur’s girlfriend, marking the engaged couple's announcement in style.
The dinner, held at one of Monaco’s most exclusive dining spots, appeared to be a joyous family affair, as the Leclerc brothers came together to celebrate this special milestone for Lorenzo and Charlotte.
Leclerc’s celebratory post comes at a crucial point in the F1 season; the 26-year-old currently sits third in the championship with 245 points, 86 points behind leader Max Verstappen, and just eight points ahead of fourth-placed Oscar Piastri.
With only six races remaining in 2024, Leclerc is fighting to hold on to his podium position in the drivers’ championship, adding further intensity to the closing stages of this year's campaign.
As Leclerc continues to battle on the track, this personal celebration provided a brief but meaningful respite from the high-pressure world of F1.
