Leclerc did not score any points at his home round at [[Circuit de Monaco|Monaco]]. He was on pole but retired from the lead of the race with a suspension problem. The retirement also meant he would start the sprint race from the back of the grid, and in this race, he collided with [[Norman Nato]] whilst trying to make his way up the grid, which ultimately resulted in both drivers retiring from the race. He retained the championship lead despite the bad weekend, which he described as 'hugely disappointing'.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Kalinauckas |first=Alex |title=Monaco F2: Rowland takes first win as Leclerc retires |language=en |work=Autosport.com |url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/129774 |url-status=live |access-date=8 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170808193301/http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/129774 |archive-date=8 August 2017}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |title=Monaco F2: De Vries takes maiden win in Rapax 1–2 |language=en |work=Motorsport.com |url=https://www.motorsport.com/fia-f2/news/monaco-f2-de-vries-rapax-sprint-race-911283/?s=1 |url-status=live |access-date=8 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170808155435/https://www.motorsport.com/fia-f2/news/monaco-f2-de-vries-rapax-sprint-race-911283/?s=1 |archive-date=8 August 2017}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |title=Leclerc column: Moving on from Monaco misfortune |language=en |work=Motorsport.com |url=https://www.motorsport.com/fia-f2/news/charles-leclerc-column-monaco-f2-heartbreak-912533/ |url-status=live |access-date=8 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170808162457/https://www.motorsport.com/fia-f2/news/charles-leclerc-column-monaco-f2-heartbreak-912533/ |archive-date=8 August 2017}}</ref>

He would not start from pole in Hungary, despite taking his seventh successive pole position, as he was disqualified for a technical infringement. Despite starting from the back, he was in 12th position by turn 1. Using an alternative tyre strategy that saw him start on the medium tyres, Leclerc was stuck behind [[Alexander Albon]], who was on the same strategy, although he eventually got past and would finish fourth.

For the Belgian rounds, Leclerc again took pole and won the race by a convincing margin of over 20 seconds, however, his win was disqualified as one of his [[skid block]]s was excessively worn. Having to start in 19th place, Leclerc got back up to fifth place and finished 3.8 seconds behind race winner [[Sérgio Sette Câmara]].

For the Italian feature race, Leclerc was battling for the lead; on the final lap, however, he was involved in an accident with De Vries. After starting towards the back of the grid for the second consecutive sprint race, Leclerc managed to fight his way back to ninth position, albeit out of the points.

With a 57-point margin over Rowland heading into the penultimate rounds at Jerez, Leclerc gained his eighth pole position of the season, with both of his timed laps being good enough for pole position. In the feature race, Leclerc dominated most of the early stint on soft tyres and was able to overtake most of the runners on the alternate strategy. With seven laps to go, however, [[Nobuharu Matsushita]] collided with [[Santino Ferrucci]], which brought out the safety car. At the point that the race resumed, Leclerc was misinformed over team radio that it was the "last lap" even though there were four laps to go,<ref name=":1">{{Cite news |title=Leclerc column: How lap count mishap nearly delayed F2 title |language=en |work=Motorsport.com |url=https://www.motorsport.com/fia-f2/news/leclerc-column-jerez-title-mishap-lap-count-964048/ |url-status=live |access-date=6 February 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220321175936/https://www.motorsport.com/fia-f2/news/leclerc-column-jerez-title-mishap-lap-count-964048/3051381/ |archive-date=21 March 2022}}</ref> so after pushing hard to build a gap Leclerc's tyres were "overheated badly"<ref name=":1" /> with several laps still to run, yet despite his tyres being "completely gone" by the end Leclerc managed to hold off a charging Rowland by 0.23 seconds,<ref>{{Cite web |title=Results – Formula 2 |url=http://www.fiaformula2.com/Results/?raceid=982&seasonid=174 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171112160550/http://www.fiaformula2.com/Results/?seasonid=174&raceid=982 |archive-date=12 November 2017 |access-date=6 February 2018 |website=www.fiaformula2.com}}</ref> and claim the FIA Formula 2 championship in his rookie season in the main F1 feeder series.<ref>{{Cite news |date=7 October 2017 |title=Leclerc seals F2 title with Jerez win |work=[[Autosport]].com |publisher=[[Motorsport Network]] |url=https://www.autosport.com/f2/news/132272/leclerc-seals-f2-title-with-jerez-win |url-status=live |access-date=8 October 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190308051753/https://www.autosport.com/f2/news/132272/leclerc-seals-f2-title-with-jerez-win |archive-date=8 March 2019}}</ref>

In claiming the championship, Leclerc became the youngest ever champion of the main support series for Formula 1 at 19 years, 356 days old, and the first driver since [[Nico Hülkenberg]] in 2009 to win the championship in their rookie season (a feat which only [[Nico Rosberg]] and [[Lewis Hamilton]] have previously accomplished) and is the only driver to claim a championship with the Dallara GP2/11 chassis in their rookie season.

For the sprint race, Leclerc started in eighth place, however, due to his car's aggressive setup, he and his teammate, Antonio Fuoco, had to pit in the sprint race. Due to the aggressive pace of Leclerc however, he rose through the field, yet because of the excessive wear on his tyres, he conceded three positions on the final lap and finished in seventh position.

For the final rounds at Abu Dhabi, Leclerc qualified in sixth place for the Feature race, his lowest starting position all season excluding penalties. Despite this, however, he managed to finish the highest of the alternate strategy runners in Abu Dhabi (Soft then Super Soft) in fourth place (he had made it up till third until the final corner of the final lap where he was pipped by Antonio Fuoco). This position however was subsequently changed to second after the race winner, Oliver Rowland, and Fuoco were disqualified for excessive floor wear and under-inflated front tyres respectively.

For Leclerc's final race, he started in seventh position. He was initially able to make up two places but was running slower than the race leaders [[Alexander Albon]] and [[Nicholas Latifi]]. As the race progressed, however, Leclerc started gaining time compared to his rivals and managed to take Latifi with a few laps to go. For the final three laps, DRS was disabled and yellow flags in the final sector meant that Leclerc was stuck behind Albon, however on the final lap, both drivers tangled, triggered by Leclerc nudging Albon, and both had a drag race which they constantly were pushing each other until Leclerc finally took the lead and won by 1.293 seconds, his final victory in his last F2 race.

At the first race after the summer break, the [[2019 Belgian Grand Prix|Belgian Grand Prix]], Leclerc took his third pole position of the season alongside teammate Sebastian Vettel in second—the second Ferrari front-row lockout of the season. During the race, Leclerc fended off the charging Mercedes of [[Lewis Hamilton]] to record his maiden Grand Prix win, making him the youngest ever Ferrari race winner. After the race, he dedicated his maiden victory to his former competitor [[Anthoine Hubert]], who was killed in an accident during [[2019 Spa-Francorchamps FIA Formula 2 round|the previous day's Formula 2 feature race]] at the same circuit. At the [[2019 Italian Grand Prix|Italian Grand Prix]], Leclerc won the race from pole position after defending his position from both Mercedes drivers and became the first Ferrari driver to win at [[Autodromo Nazionale di Monza|Monza]] since [[Fernando Alonso]] won there for the team in [[2010 Italian Grand Prix|2010]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ruthven |first=Graham |date=8 September 2019 |title=F1 news – Charles Leclerc holds off Mercedes to take victory at Monza |url=https://www.eurosport.com/formula-1/italian-grand-prix/2019/f1-news-charles-leclerc-holds-off-mercedes-to-take-victory-at-monza_sto7449507/story.shtml |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220321175919/https://www.eurosport.com/geoblocking.shtml |archive-date=21 March 2022 |access-date=25 May 2020 |website=[[Eurosport]]}}</ref> He scored his third consecutive pole in [[2019 Singapore Grand Prix|Singapore]]. Initially leading the race, he finished in second place after he was [[Glossary of motorsport terms#U|undercut]] by teammate Vettel. In [[2019 Russian Grand Prix|Russia]], he took his fourth consecutive pole position and his sixth of the season. Vettel passed Leclerc into the first corner and led for the first half of the race before the team orchestrated an undercut in Leclerc's favour to let him retake the lead. Vettel retired from the race shortly after with a hybrid system failure, bringing out the [[virtual safety car]]. This greatly benefited the Mercedes drivers, who made their pit stops and eventually finished the race ahead of Leclerc in third.<ref>{{Cite web |date=29 September 2019 |title='Deliciously ironic' that Vettel failure inspired Hamilton victory – Mercedes |url=https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.deliciously-ironic-that-vettel-failure-inspired-hamilton-victory-mercedes.5YoCZ0E8KAt6Hq58XWfn2M.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190930084828/https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.deliciously-ironic-that-vettel-failure-inspired-hamilton-victory-mercedes.5YoCZ0E8KAt6Hq58XWfn2M.html |archive-date=30 September 2019 |access-date=30 September 2019 |website=www.formula1.com |language=en}}</ref>

Leclerc qualified in second in [[2019 Japanese Grand Prix|Japan]], but took damage in a first-lap collision with Max Verstappen. He would go on to finish the race in sixth place, his worst finish of the season. Leclerc took his seventh pole position of the year in [[2019 Mexican Grand Prix|Mexico]] after Verstappen—who had qualified in first place—was handed a grid penalty for a [[Caution flag|yellow flag]] infringement. He went on to finish the race in fourth place. After another fourth-place finish in the [[2019 United States Grand Prix|United States]], a controversial collision with teammate Vettel caused Leclerc's third retirement of the season in [[2019 Brazilian Grand Prix|Brazil]], ending both drivers' races. Leclerc ended the season with a third-place finish in [[2019 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|Abu Dhabi]].

Leclerc ended the 2019 season in fourth place in the championship with 264 points, ahead of teammate Vettel. During his first season at Ferrari, he recorded ten podium finishes, two wins, four fastest laps, and the most pole positions of any driver that season, with seven. Leclerc, therefore, became the first non-Mercedes driver to win the [[FIA Pole Trophy|Pole Position Award]]. He also became the first Monégasque to win a Formula One World Championship Grand Prix (although Louis Chiron had won several Grands Prix before the inaugural championship in {{F1|1950}}).

====2020 season====

Leclerc qualified seventh for the [[2020 Austrian Grand Prix]]. The team struggled for pace in the race but due to the chaotic nature of the race recovered to finish second with Leclerc pulling off crucial overtaking manoeuvres on fresh tyres after the final restart. In the build-up to the [[2020 Styrian Grand Prix|Styrian Grand Prix]] weekend, Leclerc and [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]] were investigated by the [[FIA]] after allegedly breaching the governing body's strict [[COVID-19]] safety protocols after returning home to [[Monaco]] (with permission from his team) in between the [[2020 Austrian Grand Prix|Austrian]] and [[2020 Styrian Grand Prix|Styrian Grands Prix]] events with social media posts showing Leclerc socialising with fans, friends and his girlfriend.

Before competing in the [[70th Anniversary Grand Prix]] in 2020 at [[Silverstone Circuit|Silverstone]], Leclerc reacted angrily to accusations that he was racist and opposed to the [[Black Lives Matter]] movement, responding by saying racism is "disgusting" and accusing headlines of attempting to manipulate his words.<ref>{{Cite web |date=6 August 2020 |title=Leclerc on racism accusations over not taking knee |url=https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/leclerc-kneeling-racism-accusations/4850674/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200806165025/https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/leclerc-kneeling-racism-accusations/4850674/ |archive-date=6 August 2020 |access-date=6 August 2020 |website=www.motorsport.com |language=en}}</ref> The accusations came after he was one of six drivers who opted not to [[U.S. national anthem protests (2016–present)|take a knee]] during the pre-race ceremonies of the opening events of the [[2020 Formula One World Championship]] as part of the sports anti-racism campaign. He stated that he chose not to take a knee due to the negative political connotations he felt such a gesture could have.<ref>{{Cite news |date=5 July 2020 |title=Fourteen F1 drivers take a knee |language=en-GB |work=BBC Sport |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/53299085 |url-status=live |access-date=6 August 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200815181334/https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/53299085 |archive-date=15 August 2020}}</ref>

At the [[2020 Italian Grand Prix]] he qualified thirteenth but in the race, he crashed out at Parabolica on lap 24, while he was in fourth, thanks to a pitstop earlier than others who pitted during a Safety Car period. The crash caused a red flag.<ref>{{Cite web |date=6 September 2020 |title=Ferrari's F1 woes deepen outside the top 10 on home Italian GP grid |url=https://www.skysports.com/f1/news/12433/12064192/ferraris-f1-woes-deepen-outside-the-top-10-on-home-italian-gp-grid |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201022094700/https://www.skysports.com/f1/news/12433/12064192/ferraris-f1-woes-deepen-outside-the-top-10-on-home-italian-gp-grid |archive-date=22 October 2020 |access-date=6 September 2020 |website=Sky Sports}}</ref>

At the rain-hit [[2020 Turkish Grand Prix|Turkish Grand Prix]], Leclerc was running in third place after producing a comeback from 14th on the intermediate tyres. However, a mistake while attempting to pass [[Sergio Pérez]] for second on the final lap resulted in Leclerc running wide and losing the podium to teammate Vettel. The doubleheader in Bahrain was rather forgettable for Leclerc, who finished tenth in the first race and retired after a first-lap collision with Pérez in the second. At the final round in Abu Dhabi, both Ferraris lacked pace and finished outside the points, with Leclerc in 13th ahead of Vettel.<ref>{{Cite web |date=13 December 2020 |title=Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2020 – Race Result |url=https://www.formula1.com/en/results.html/2020/races/1061/abu-dhabi/race-result.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201007234411/https://www.formula1.com/en/results.html/2020/races/1061/abu-dhabi/race-result.html |archive-date=7 October 2020 |access-date=13 December 2020 |website=Formula1.com}}</ref> Leclerc finished the championship in eighth, scoring 98 points.

In the [[2023 Miami Grand Prix|Miami Grand Prix]], Leclerc started seventh after crashing during Q3. He finished the race in the same position to cap off a frustrating weekend. In his home event the [[2023 Monaco Grand Prix|Monaco Grand Prix]], he qualified third but started sixth after being given a three-place grid penalty for impending during Q3. In the race, he finished sixth. In [[2023 Spanish Grand Prix|Spain]], he qualified nineteenth and started the race from the pitlane. He would go on to finish eleventh in the race. In [[2023 Canadian Grand Prix|Canada]] Leclerc qualified eleventh and started tenth. His team opted not to pit during a safety car which left Leclerc and Sainz in fourth and fifth position respectively. The gamble would pay off, with both drivers building enough of a gap to those behind them to make a pit stop and rejoin in the same positions. Leclerc would finished the race fourth, less than five seconds shy of third-placed Hamilton. In [[2023 Austrian Grand Prix|Austria]] he started behind Verstappen on the front-row. Leclerc meanwhile qualified sixth for the sprint before penalties were applied that dropped him down to ninth. Leclerc finished twelfth in the sprint. During the main race, Leclerc remained behind Verstappen for a majority of the race before Verstappen had his mandatory stop on lap 24, which Leclerc was able to capitalise upon. This allowed him to lead a race, his first since Azerbaijan. Over the next nine laps, Verstappen would close up to him and overtake him with DRS. Leclerc would finish second in the race. 

Leclerc achieved his third podium finish of the season in the main race at the [[2023 Belgian Grand Prix]], after taking pole position in qualifying. He also achieved another pole position at the [[2023 United States Grand Prix]], however he finished 6th in the main race before being disqualified along with [[Lewis Hamilton]] due to their cars having excessive wear on their skid blocks.<ref>{{Cite news|url= https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.breaking-hamilton-and-leclerc-disqualified-from-united-states-grand-prix-for.10nvuyvEPfMgoeWxWOhw0a.html |work=Formula 1|date=22 October 2023|access-date=26 October 2023|title=Hamilton and Leclerc disqualified from the United States Grand Prix for technical breach|archive-date=26 October 2023|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20231026025059/https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.breaking-hamilton-and-leclerc-disqualified-from-united-states-grand-prix-for.10nvuyvEPfMgoeWxWOhw0a.html |url-status=live}}</ref> In the following race at [[2023 Mexico City Grand Prix|Mexico City]], Ferrari locked out the front row in qualifying with Leclerc starting on pole. However, in the first corner of the race, Leclerc and Pérez collided, ending the race of the latter. Nevertheless, Leclerc finished third. 

The following weekend in [[2023 São Paulo Grand Prix|São Paulo]], Leclerc again qualified on the front row, behind poleman Max Verstappen. He crashed out on the formation lap of the race after a hydraulics issue at Ferradura, the same corner in which he crashed in the previous year's edition of the race. 

He managed to secure the 5th place in the Championship, although it was his teammate [[Carlos Sainz Jr.|Carlos Sainz]] who achieved Ferrari's only win of the year, interrupting Red Bull's perfect winning streak.
