Left to relax for a few days in Italy, Charles Leclerc certainly kept a bitter memory of his vacation. The Monegasque driver has well deserved a few days of rest after his close to perfect start to the season. At the wheel of his Ferrari, the handsome 24-year-old is currently first in the drivers’ standings, far ahead of his great rivals Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen. An ideal introduction for the companion of Charlotte Siné, who can enjoy his days off with the feeling of accomplishment.
Last Sunday, Charles Leclerc was also at home in Monaco, to attend the final of the prestigious Masters 1000 in Monte-Carlo. Accompanied by his lover, he was able to witness the great victory of Stefanos Tsitsipas. A beautiful moment that has surely allowed him to forget the unfortunate misadventure that happened to him last week. Vacationing in Italy in the seaside town of Viareggioin Tuscany, the athlete was able to enjoy a week of rest, but according to information from the Italian site media setnot everything went as planned…
A watch estimated at several million euros!
While strolling down Via Salvatori, one of the city’s most famous thoroughfares, Charles Leclerc is recognized by fans who ask him to sign autographs. One of the specificities of this famous street is to be known for its lack of light and according to information from our colleagues, a man would have taken the opportunity to steal the Monegasque’s watch. Posing as a fan, he approached to take a selfie with him and steal his property and we are not talking about just any watch since it is a Richard Mille 67-02 specially designed in the colors of Monaco. A watch estimated according to media set at 2 million euros!
Very bad news for Charles Leclerc, who therefore sees a luxury item of great value being stolen from him before his eyes. If he has not yet expressed himself on this flight, his personal trainer Andrea Ferrari did it on his Instagram account. “The Via Salvatori has been completely dark for months and we have been complaining. Well, last night, we were robbed. Do you think you can repair the lamps one day? I ask for a friend”indicates the relative of the pilot, originally from Viareggio.
Despite this misadventure, Charles Leclerc can continue to smile. First in the world championship, he is surely off to a historic season with Scuderia Ferrari!
