Charles Leclerc recently put up a shocking Instagram story in which he mocked himself for his football skills. While the Monegasque is extremely critical of himself when he makes mistakes on the race track, few expected him to do so when it came to a charity football match.
Leclerc had a disastrous outing as he not only missed several chances but also had a bad tumble. The 25-year-old has used that particular tumble to mock himself by putting up a hilarious post.

After Leclerc had a tumble in the second minute of the match, he took to Instagram and uploaded an image of the same with a hilarious caption that read, “I’ve got a natural talent at football that very few have“. Soon after the Ferrari driver had this tumble, social media went into meltdown.

Another fan named Nini went to the extent of potentially foreshadowing what Leclerc might face at this weekend’s Monaco GP.

Meanwhile, some other fans such as Clara posted a hilarious video of how Max Verstappen would react looking at Leclerc’s disappointing football performance.

And then there were some fans such as Chlo who were least bothered about Leclerc’s performance.
he didn’t make a single goal, infact missed two open ones, fell flat on his face, and the team started winning as soon as he was subbed. but he’s still charles leclerc pic.twitter.com/n000u6jKIg

Can Leclerc overcome the Monaco GP curse?
All eyes will be on Charles Leclerc this weekend as he takes part in his fifth F1 home race in Monaco. The Monegasque’s previous results at his home Grand Prix have been an utter disaster as he has had two DNFs, one DNS, and a fourth-place finish, a race in which he qualified on pole.
Because of how disappointing Leclerc’s previous results have been at his home race, people believe that he has a curse. And moreover, after Leclerc also had a disastrous charity football match, some fans such as Nini fear that the ‘Monaco curse‘ is so prominent for the Ferrari driver that it also ‘transfers to other sports‘.
