Leclerc enjoys the beach with Leo: 'That why 24 Grands Prix is the limit'
Charles Leclerc is enjoying his time off during the off-season. The Monegasque driver shared photos of his holiday in Mexico with his brothers, his partner Alexandra Saint Mleux, and of course with their dog, Leo. Before the 2024 season ended, Leclerc also explained why there has to be a limit in terms of number of weekends in the competition.
According to Leclerc, the 24-race-long calendar is not the most difficult for the drivers in terms of running out of energy. "I still think 24 is the maximum. Personally, I’m not that tired. Drivers are traveling in the best possible conditions. We are staying in the best possible conditions. We are doing everything. We've got a team for recovery. We've got lots of things put around for us to be 100% from the first race to the last race, things a lot more difficult for the members of the team and this has to be kept in mind by F1," he began to GPblog among others.
However, the Ferrari driver has another reason why 24 weekends should the limit. "Where I struggle most is more about the private life, the balance between the private life and the professional life. And of course, the private life always becomes less and less, more races you add. On the other hand, I'm also in a position that I can bring my family to races and live from my passion, so I cannot complain, but I still feel like 24 is probably the maximum that is reasonable."
