Alongside Ferrari’s unveiling of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton’s 2025 race suits, the Monegasque showcased his all-new helmet livery for the upcoming season, and it’s a lid that carries deep personal significance.
More than just a piece of racing equipment, Leclerc’s helmet carries the weight of love and remembrance.
Adorned with the names ‘Papa’ and ‘Jules’ on either side, the design honors two figures who were pivotal in Leclerc’s journey to Formula 1—his late father, Hervé, and his late mentor, Jules Bianchi.
Both men played integral roles in shaping the Ferrari charger’s career, and their memory remains a powerful presence in his life.
The helmet, featuring the red and white colors of the Principality of Monaco, also includes his number 16 and initials CL, symbolizing his connection to both his Monegasque roots and his enduring legacy.
As Leclerc continues to race, this tribute serves as a constant reminder of the loved ones who helped him rise to the pinnacle of motorsport.
