PUMA Welcomes Formula 1 Driver Charles Leclerc as New Brand Ambassador

Charles Leclerc has continued to showcase his exceptional talent and skill, solidifying his position as one of the top drivers in Formula 1. Leclerc has demonstrated his exceptional qualifying prowess and raw speed, with three pole positions this season. His most memorable achievements came with two prestigious victories—first at the iconic Monaco Grand Prix, his home race, where he thrilled local fans with a dominant win, and later at Monza, where he conquered the famed “Temple of Speed” in front of the passionate Tifosi. 

The strategic partnership aims to drive awareness for the brand, connecting with fans of both motorsport and fashion, and reinforcing PUMA’s impact in these spaces. The collaboration will spotlight Leclerc in a range of high-profile PUMA collections, with a particular emphasis on the PUMA Motorsport for Scuderia Ferrari collections, across various global channels.

“We are more than excited to welcome Charles to the PUMA family. His unique blend of being a professional athlete in Formula One and a fashion enthusiast off the track makes him a perfect fit for our brand. Charles will not only serve as a motorsport ambassador but he will also play a vital role in various projects and initiatives that extend beyond the racetrack. There are a lot of exciting projects in the pipeline, and we can’t wait to continue shaping our motorsport legacy together with Charles.” said Arne Freundt, CEO of PUMA.

With this collaboration, PUMA and Charles will jointly highlight the brand’s ability to blend high-performance functionality with innovative designs, appeling to a wide audience that ranges from trackside fans to those who embrace streetstyle.

For Charles, the partnership is more than a sponsorship—it’s a convergence of values and vision. 

This authentic and genuine match between PUMA and Charles Leclerc is grounded in shared values, a mutual passion for pushing the boundaries, and a desire to inspire. Together, PUMA and Charles Leclerc are ready to drive new levels of excitement, awareness, and influence across motorsport and beyond—making this collaboration a natural fit and a powerful alliance for the future.
