The Monaco Grand Prix, often touted as the crown jewel of Formula 1, attracts a lot of celebrity guests throughout the weekend. Superstars from the world of acting to the world of sports all congregate at the Monaco GP weekend. The latest celebrity to join this list is American actor Noah Schnapp, who is apparently a Charles Leclerc fan.
Leclerc would be looking for any and every well-wisher that comes his way as he looks to break the Monaco Curse. The Ferrari showed good pace during the first two practice sessions. Carlos Sainz topped the first session while the second session had Leclerc finish P2, just behind Max Verstappen.
Noah Schnapp was spotted on a boat having a Charles Leclerc flag
Noah Schnapp, often touted as a Charles Leclerc lookalike, gained widespread recognition after playing Will Byers on the famed Netflix show Stranger Things. He uploaded a story on his Instagram account on Friday that showed that he was on a boat in Monaco. The boat also had a flag with Charles Leclerc written on it.
The actor was also wearing jewelry from the brand APM Monaco. APM Monaco is a high-end jewelry brand promoted by Leclerc himself. Schnapp was wearing a necklace from the yummy bear collection of the jewelry company.

In another picture, Schnapp was seen enjoying a hearty meal on the same boat. It is quite evident that he would be supporting the Monegasque at his home race.
Charles Leclerc to go ‘all out’ during Qualifying
Charles Leclerc has made it clear that despite his bad run of form at his home race, he won’t be holding back anything during Qualifying. The Monegasque had very famously crashed at the swimming pool chicane during the 2021 Grand Prix. The subsequent damage to his gearbox meant that he could not start the race anymore.
Leclerc claimed the pole in 2022 as well. But the race was a disaster for him as a Ferrari strategy mistake cost him the race. He was double-stacked with his teammate Carlos Sainz during the pit stop which led to him losing time, and the Monegasque couldn’t recover anymore.
However, Leclerc has told Sky Sports F1, “You can pull back, but honestly, I know that on a year like this, to actually get on pole you need to go all out.”
