Charles Leclerc grabbed the attention of all his fans on Sunday with his unique fashion sense. While most of his admirers were happy to see him arrive at the Miami Grand Prix in blue-colored pants, his rivals Max Verstappen and Lando Norris mocked him for his fashion sense.
When Norris saw Leclerc wear these pants, he asked the Monegasque if he had made it himself. When Leclerc replied ‘yes’, Verstappen added, “Really?? … Oh my god he’s taking the piss”.

Max Verstappen extends his championship lead while Leclerc and Norris struggle
Max Verstappen put in an incredible performance on Sunday to win the Miami Grand Prix despite starting ninth on the grid. The Dutchman overtook eight other cars, including his Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez, to win his third race of the season.
In the process, he also extended his lead at the top of the championship from six points to 14 points against Perez. As for the Mexican driver, it was sheer agony as he could not convert his pole position into a win.
Coming to Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris, the race weekend has been nothing short of a disaster. The Monegasque driver finished seventh, the same position he began in after having a crash in qualifying. Consequently of this, he only scored six points and lost a place to Mercedes’ George Russell in the championship.
On the other hand, Norris finished all the way back in 14th and failed to score any points for the team. The Briton is currently ninth in the championship, just two points ahead of Alpine’s Pierre Gasly.
