Charles Leclerc, lead climber

40

There's more to climbing a mountain than just reaching the summit.

Clean air and picturesque views can improve well-being and physical health, and perhaps also offer a different perspective on things.

Now in the thick of his physical preparations for 2023, Charles Leclerc braved the bad weather in the Dolomites this week to navigate some difficult terrain.

But the Monegasque vanquished the elements and came out on top, and he's hoping to do the same this year with Ferrari, but in much warmer temperatures…

Forza Charles!

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
