WATCH: “Probably faster than the SF-23” – Fans react as Charles Leclerc and his buddies take to the beaches of Los Angeles on their tricycles

To say that Charles Leclerc‘s 2023 Formula 1 season has been utterly disastrous would be an understatement. The racer completely broke down after his most recent mess up at the racetrack where he rammed into the barriers at Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace during the formation lap in Brazil GP. He wondered aloud why it is always him who has to be so ‘unlucky’ since his SF-23 had some hydraulics issues right before the race began. Thus, he landed a DNS even after getting a front row finish due to his great performance at the Qualifying.

While Leclerc must still be recovering from the upsetting to his Brazilian GP, he is not letting that dampen his mood right now. The Monegasque is set to appear at the Las Vegas Grand Prix for Ferrari in a week’s time. And in the middle of all this, he took a trip to Los Angeles with some of his friends, including Charles’ athletic trainer Andrea Ferrari and PA Joris Trouche. Photographer Antoine Trouche also accompanied the young squad as the toured California on their tricycles.

Charles Leclerc‘s disappointing outings in this year’s Grands Prix have made several F1 viewers ridicule him. When he has entered Ferrari back in 2019, he was seen as their sole Championship hope. But four years down the line, Charles is nowhere near claiming the coveted F1 title. But the Tifosis mostly feel sympathetic towards the 26-year-old as his car has failed him on more occasions than one. This has led many of them to comment that the tricycles Charles was seen riding in his Los Angeles pictures might be faster than his F1 car SF-23.

Fans believe Charles Leclerc makes a subtle reference to a legendary hip-hop song by Chamillionaire

Leclerc has been quite active on social media of late. He posted the pictures of him and his friends taking on LA with a cheeky caption that read, “We rolling babyyyyyy“. Fans quickly understood this to be a reference to a 2005 hip-hop classic by Chamillionaire. But most of them were concerned about the fact that Leclerc’s tricycle would be better as his ride for the impending F1 Grand Prix in Las Vegas than his SF-23.
