via F1iLeclerc's Ferrari secret: ‘I've got some restrictions’Charles Leclerc has shared that he faces restrictions on his off-track activities as a Ferrari driver, particularly when it comes to potentially dangerous hobbies. This discussion arose in light of Red Bull's Isack Hadjar, who had been sidelined due to a hand injury from boxing, and Leclerc's comments highlighted the differences in how teams manage their drivers' leisure activities. Leclerc noted that while he is not overly restricted, certain activities like skydiving are discouraged by Ferrari. He recounted a past experience where his attempt at skydiving was not well received by team management. Additionally, he mentioned that winter sports like skiing are approached with caution, especially as the racing season approaches, indicating a need for responsibility in managing risks associated with such activities.
