A filmmaker with a soft spot for Ronnie Peterson, Gilles Villeneuve, Mika Hakkinen and above all, Tazio Nuvolari and Ayrton Senna, is also a diehard Formula One fan since the age of 4 (mid-90's). An avid researcher of the past of Grand Prix Racing since before it was even named F1, and with a thirst for knowledge of the ins and outs of the actuality of the sport, as well as for the technical aspects that define it, is a member of GPblog since 2023, where he has put his love of racing to good use.
The first 15 minutes of the session had barely elapsed when Charles Leclerc smashed his Ferrari into the wall at turn 3.
Leclerc crashes during FP1 at the Canadian GP
The current leader of the session has already fallen out of contention after crashing into the outside wall at Turn 3.
He was carrying too much speed and overshot the corner. Instead of going straight into the run-off, the Monegasque tried to make the corner, which sent him onto the grass and then into the wall destroying his left front and rear supensions and left his stricken SF-25 in the middle of the exit of Turn 4.
Right after the accident Leclerc took the onboard radio to apologise to the team and explain the accident. "Sorry. I'm in the wall. Yeah, my bad, I should've gone straight. I thought 'I will just make it,' but I clipped the wall."
