Charles Leclerc promptly replied to a fan’s post after rumors spread that one of his cars was spotted earlier in the day in Maranello. This rumor spread a day after the 25-year-old made headlines this past Sunday when he and his brother, Arthur, thrilled their fans by drifting along the streets of Monaco with their Ferrari Pista.
A Leclerc fan spread this news by posting that the Monegasque’s ‘new Ferrari 812 Competizione‘ was allegedly spotted in Maranello. Within 10-15 minutes of the fan’s post, the 25-year-old replied that it is not his.

Meanwhile, some other fans such as Lia wondered if Leclerc was even getting a new car or whether rumors were just being spread.
Are you even getting a new car or is everyone just annoying you? 😭

And then there were fans such as Fatima who put out a meme of Leclerc seemingly getting annoyed because of people continuously associating him with ‘different cars every week‘.

Charles Leclerc thrills fans with spectacular drifts in Monaco
A day before these rumors spread of Charles Leclerc having bought a new car, the 25-year-old took his Ferrari Pista for a ride around the streets of Monaco. Leclerc put up a post for the same and captioned it, “When does the pitlane open“? He presumably wrote such a post as his home race in Monaco takes place in two weeks’ time.

Soon after Leclerc took his car for a ride, fans such as Clara posted a video to indicate the sheer number of people that gathered just to see the Monegasque take out his car.
