Just want to verify his Formula 3 results

They seem to be a repeating pattern of 1-2-3-1-2-3 for the entire season, in order. That is odd and I just want to verify that this isn't placeholder text or something. Thanks. Jasphetamine (talk) 06:14, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Everything is fine. Corvus tristis (talk) 06:20, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

I've attached the race numbers to the heading without breaks to remove this confusion in the table — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.62.211.93 (talk) 22:50, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

I've reverted the change because it makes the table (a) excessively wide and (b) inconsistent with all the other Euro F3 driver results tables. Despite the OP's apparent confusion, when you compare this table with the other results tables in this article, I think it would be fairly clear to most readers that the numbers 1, 2, 3 are part of the race identifiers, not race results.

Making this the main "Charles Leclerc" article

I think it is time to make this article the automatic redirect for Charles Leclerc, rather than the French general. This is since Leclerc now is going to be an official Scuderia Ferrari driver, with the stature of that team making him one of the most famous racecar drivers, and therefore having a significant contemporary WP:Notability. This would render him the most likely search target for anyone looking for the name "Charles Leclerc". I think the solution is to make this page the main page for "Charles Leclerc", moving the general to "Charles Leclerc (general)" and have a disambiguition link to the general on this page. I hope there are no issues with it, and if that is the case I can make the switch within 48 hours.

Image change and Credit

I have updated the image at the top of the page to a more recent one from the 2022 Austrian Grand Prix . Many thanks to Lukas Raich for providing this image--MKL123 (talk) 16:42, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Revert. It would be nice if we actually can see him instead of long shot where you can't even see his face.Lobo151 (talk) 17:14, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

FIA Pole Trophy

Was Leclerc actually awarded the FIA Pole Trophy in 2019 and 2022, as indicated in the infobox? I'm not disputing that he scored the most pole positions in each of those seasons, but Pole_position#Pole_position_trophy says "In 2018, the FIA Pole Trophy was discontinued and replaced with the Pirelli Pole Position Award, where the polesitter at each race as awarded a Pirelli wind tunnel tyre with the name of the polesitter and their time." DH85868993 (talk) 06:18, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

In the Awards and honours section of the article, 2019 is suffiecently cited (imo) to remove any doubt. I would like to see a similar source for 2022, otherwise it should.be removed as WP:OR SSSB (talk) 07:31, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Lorenzo

Does lorenzo no longer exist as his brother 80.7.213.218 (talk) 12:16, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Lorenzo is still his brother, but by convention, only people who are sufficiently notable to have their own article are listed in the "Relatives" section of someone's infobox. DH85868993 (talk) 12:24, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

CN tags

Just noting here that I do plan on replacing the tags I have added to Leclerc's Formula One career section with reliable, secondary, independent sources once it has been re-written—the referencing in this article needs a lot of work. MB2437 02:49, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

Charles grandparents

Hello, Charles Manni is not the maternal grandfather of charles but he is from his dad side. Also the reason why his dad has the name Leclerc is because Charles Manni is his stepfather. You can confirm that buy going on the instagram page of Thierry Manni who mention mutliple time his " brother" Hervé.

here is a link mentionning that Thierry Manni is his brother and mentionning his mother Dominique Manni and his siblings form the same father. https://www.dansnoscoeurs.fr/herve-leclerc/2117043 2A02:A03F:611A:C00:30FD:98BB:23B0:75E3 (talk) 23:39, 11 May 2025 (UTC)

Correction, this was done here! Was my mistake :) MB2437 18:43, 25 May 2025 (UTC)

Wrong infos fuelling by rumors.

hello, I would like to say that the information about charles's girlfriend is false. She is not italian. She speak italian but it isn't her nationality. She confirmed it herself in her social media. She is mexican and work in a art museum. Even thought the article you mentionned say it, you need to be careful because a lot of these are false or based their information on nothing but rumors. Ozme02 (talk) 00:17, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia content is written on what is reliably published by secondary, independent sources. What is the source for her confirming she is not Italian? MB2437 00:29, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

I second Ozme02's statement. It is important to remember that the majority of WAG focussed articles are written based on rumours and what has been shared via third party such as their boyfriends or other paddock members.

Here are some evidence to argue that she is Mexican:

There is a video of her saying that she is Mexican from the Mexico GP last year. She has also recently added the Mexican and French flags into her tiktok bio, and videos of her speaking Mexican Spanish. There is no evidence backing the fact that Alexandra is Italian; many other articles have also deemed her Argentine and Swiss. I believe is it circular reporting that has caused this piece of misinformation to spread. Based on the limited evidence, I believe there is a much stronger case to state Alexandra is Mexican over Italian. If her nationality is really , I believe it is best to leave it out altogether. Please let me know your thoughts.

In addition, I would also like to address her profession. One must differentiate what is means to be a "model", and participate in "modelling". A model is a profession, encompassing the majority of your income. It is what you would introduce yourself as when meeting strangers. For example, Lewis Hamilton is working as a director on the F1 movie, but if he were in this situation, it would be incorrect to state him as a movie director, wouldn't it? In fact, the Tatler article doesn't even mention any modelling jobs she's undertook, simply glossing over videos and photos of her wearing designer gowns. Brands like Rhode frequently collaborate with influencer, such as Alexandra to advertise their product. Again, this is not indicative of her being a model. The majority of semi-well known social media personalities have been invited for such opportunities.

To continue, there is no evidence that Alexandra is an art historian. The Tatler article merely mentions her artistic endeavours and work with galleries; no where do the words "art historian" appear. Art galleries employ a large variety of occupation, including art historians, however Alexandra's Linkedin profile (the most accurate source detailing her employment situation) states she works as an art coordinator.

Lastly, a gentle reminder that this article is focussed on demonstrating the accomplishments of Charles Leclerc, NOT Alexandra Saint Mleux. I understand that you may wish for everything to abide exactly by your regulations, I believe it doesn't hurt to bend the rules in order to account for specific scenarios and discrepancies. Wikipedia is a communal forum and there is not harm in listening to others of a differing perspective in this beautiful community. Katiemaurice (talk) 02:39, 10 June 2025 (UTC)

A short description of her profession doesn't hurt; it's 3 words in a 7,000-word article—how is that overstepping? We have a reliable publication stating clearly that she is Italian, with an inline citation verifying the information stated. Wikipedia doesn't lead, it follows. This information has not been disputed—all the Argentine and Swiss "sources" are from unreliable blogs that are either complete waffle or AI-generated.

Her saying "sí" to someone asking if she is Mexican could mean anything. There are no sources that exist saying she has Mexican citizenship; as far as we know, she only has family there. Her name itself is not of any Spanish or Latin American origin, which fuels further doubt there. She could very well also have Mexican citizenship, but this is (currently) unsourced. We only know she is an Italian citizen.

As far as her profession goes, she has a professionally-accredited degree in art history, which she continues to cover extensively online to nearly 300,000 people, and is the lead model on a major beauty brand campaign—both of which are verified on the source given. I'd be more in favour of maintaining "art historian" than "influencer" or "model" as the latter professions are only resultant of the relationship itself.
