On the night of April 18, 2022, Formula 1 driver Charles Leclerc was the victim of a robbery as thieves stole his $320,000 Richard Mille watch in the Tuscan city of Viareggio on Easter Monday. It happened around 10 PM when the Monegasque was recognized by fans, forming a small group. Posing as fans, two suspects wanted to take a photo with the Ferrari F1 driver. He said yes, which immediately proved to be a costly mistake.
The thieves snatched the expensive timepiece from his wrist and made a run for it using a scooter, delivering the precious item to an accomplice with a grey crossover. That looks like an Opel judging by the hood's central ridge. Footage released this week by Italian police shows Charles Leclerc in his Ferrari 488 Pista.
