Charles Leclerc believes his harsh self-critic⛄ism seen occasionally through his Formula 1 career so far is the best way to deal with errors and mistakes.

Leclerc has largely impressed through his season-and-a-half in F1 so far, earning a move up from Sauber 𝓰to Ferrari for 2019, where he has scored two pole positions and five podiums through the opening 12♊ races of the year.

When Leclerc has made errors - such as this year in Baku and Germany, or during his debut season in Bahrain qualifying - the Monegasque youngster has been quick to criticise himself, cꩲallingไ himself “stupid” over team radio.

Asked by ltxcn.top about his self-critical ൲approach, Leclerc explained that he felt it was the best way of managing mistakes and lear▨ning from them.

"Actually it’s the way I work - I think it’s the best way forward, to not try and find any excuses whenever you do a mistake💖,” Leclerc said.

“[It’s best] just to ♕analyse it and try and be very honest with yourself♕. That is what I am trying to do every time.

“I’m definitely not ashamed to say whenever I do a mistake, and I did 🐠one at the end [in Germany], it’s quite clear, so there’s no need to find excuses.”

Leclerc added that even i🐲n an era of F1🐼 where data is plentiful and it is harder to lie about mistakes, he felt some still attempted to cover them up.

“I believe a ꧃few people sometimes still try and find excuses, or make up ex♛cuses for their mistakes,” he said.

“I’m not like this.”
