"In 2017, Charles Leclerc lost his father," Jacques said. "And in his final days, he told his father a white lie – he’d made it to Formula One. That he’d signed the contract. It wasn’t true then, but his driving has made it true now."

Leclerc said on the podium after the race that he was thinking about his late father, Hervé Leclerc, who died at 54 years old while Charles was trying to reach Formula One while in Formula 2 racing.
