Charles Leclerc once dropped an adorable moment on Instagram with George Russell. The Ferrari star, who seemed confused with Russell’s appreciation, gave the fans a wholesome moment to cherish.
Leclerc and Russell have always been close in the racing fraternity. But the moment they shared on one of the Instagram posts by Leclerc showed the disparity between the two regarding the Gen-Z lingo.
Over here, Leclerc was on the losing end, as he couldn’t understand what Russell meant with his comment. However, he trusted his rival and assumed it was only something positive the Mercedes star meant with his comment.
Leclerc’s adorable moment with Russell
As per a recent viral post on Twitter, the fans found an interesting online incident between the two-star drivers. The Instagram post by Leclerc that dates back to November 2020 has a fascinating comment section.
It all happened when the Ferrari star arrived in Bahrain for the last three races of the 2020 F1 season and posted a photo of himself with the team’s official carrier Vistajet.
Following the upload of the post, the Mercedes star, who was with Williams back then, decided to put “Baller” in his comment section.

The 25-year-old Prancing Horse star, who was confused with what that meant, replied, “I don’t know what this means but it’s something nice I’m sure so thank you [with a truck emoji].”
This prompted the Briton to follow up with, “basically means you’re super cool. What does the [truck emoji] mean?” Ultimately, Leclerc answered, “That I miss racing you with my Truck on the M1 on Eurotruck Simulator.”
Leclerc and Russell and their simulator
Charles Leclerc and George Russell often play together on their simulator, whether off-track or on duty. The viral post is an active example of their presence in the gaming fraternity.
Even though gaming for them is rare these days, the stars were seen playing the games during Covid-19. They would often play and stream together on the renowned streaming site Twitch.
Admittedly, the duo is a part of the fabulous four in F1, streaming along with Alex Albon of Williams and Lando Norris of McLaren. The four, known as the Twitch quartet, often play interesting video games together and share hilarious moments.
