Charles Leclerc, the 29-year-old Ferrari driver, has taken a unique approach to celebrating his recent wedding in Monaco. Following his quiet nuptials on Saturday afternoon, he and his new wife, Alexandra Saint-Mleux, were spotted driving down Monaco's famous winding roads in a rare 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa.
This iconic car is not only a prized possession of Leclerc but also a testament to the rich history of Ferrari. The 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa sold for $12.4 million at an auction, making it a truly exclusive and valuable addition to any collection.
The couple's drive down Monaco's roads was a joyous occasion, with both Leclerc and his wife beaming with happiness as they took in the sights and sounds of their beautiful surroundings.
Leclerc has spent his entire career with Ferrari, and it seems that he has free rein over the prancing horses in Maranello's stable. He is often seen driving around Europe in rare Ferraris, showcasing his passion for the iconic brand.
As Leclerc looks to start the 2026 season with hope, he will be putting behind him a character-building 2025 season that saw the team shift focus to the new regulations. Despite this, the Monegasque driver finished last year with seven podium finishes, zero wins, and only one pole position.
For racing enthusiasts who believe in superstitions or are simply looking for hope for the Ferrari driver, it is worth noting that Leclerc's predecessors as Ferrari champions were both married at the time of their first World Drivers' Championships. This could be seen as a promising sign for the team's future success.
Leclerc's wedding to Alexandra Saint-Mleux marks him as just the third driver on the current grid to be married, joining Nico Hulkenberg and Sergio Perez. Williams' Alex Albon is also expected to join this group soon with his recent engagement to Lily Muni He.
The Ferrari driver's new wife, Alexandra, has made a significant change to her social media profile by changing her last name from Saint-Mleux to Leclerc. This confirms the marriage and provides further insight into the couple's personal lives.
As Leclerc embarks on this new chapter in his life, he will be looking to build on the foundations laid down during the 2025 season. With Ferrari looking to start the 2026 season with hope, fans are eagerly anticipating what the future holds for the team and their star driver.
