- F1 driver Charles Leclerc is the proud owner of a Ferrari Daytona SP3.
- The model combines a matte black exterior with a red interior and various Monaco references.
- Leclerc’s hypercar will be exhibited at the Museo Enzo Ferrari for a limited amount of time.
Besides driving the F1 single seater for Scuderia Ferrari, Charles Leclerc has a cool collection of roadgoing models from the Maranello factory. One of the most recent additions is this Ferrari Daytona SP3, which was detailed in an official video before being handed over to the Museo Enzo Ferrari for a limited amount of time.
As is the case with most limited-production Ferrari hypercars, Leclerc’s Daytona SP3 is highly personalized. The F1 driver spent 5-6 hours in the Centro Stile Ferrari to make sure that every little detail was exactly as he wanted. The final spec looks really cool and has plenty of personal touches.

The exterior of the Daytona SP3 is finished in matte black, with two racing stripes in the colors of Monaco (red and white) running across the middle of the body. This configuration was inspired by one of Leclerc’s racing helmets and gives a rather understated look to the eye-catching Ferrari.
The carbon fiber bits are decorated with red accents, matching the red brake calipers behind the black wheels. Large Ferrari emblems are painted on the doors and Leclerc’s number 16 proudly sits on the B-pillars.
The F1 driver believes that “every Ferrari needs a little bit of red”, which is why he chose a combination of red and black for the interior. The Monegasque flag is featured on the seats and the paddle shifters, as a homage to the owner’s country of origin. Another special touch is the metal plaque mounted between the seats, bearing Leclerc’s signature and racing number.
The La Ferrari-based model from the Icona series debuted in 2021 with a price tag of €2 million ($2.2 million) and a limited production of 599 units. Under the curvaceous and nostalgic bodywork, lies a naturally aspirated V12 engine producing 829 hp (618 kW / 840 PS) and 697 Nm (514 lb-ft) of torque.
Besides the Daytona SP3, Leclerc’s Ferrari collection also includes a stunning matte white V12-powered 812 Competizione, a silver Purosangue, and a matte black 488 Pista Spider. This means that he has many alternatives now that his most prized possession will be exhibited at the museum.
