There’s a new top dog in the F1 paddock

Charles Leclerc has added a new member to his traveling squad, one that the Ferrari driver has described as “very fast, very cool, very scary and very brave”.

The furry blond pup – who has his own VIP F1 pass – goes by the name of Leo Leclerc Saint Mieux, and the lively ankle-biter made his official paddock debut in Miami last weekend.

Leo won’t be able to attend all his dad’s races this season, but Leclerc’s partner Alexandra Saint Mieux will remain at home to look after the cute pooch’s needs.
