Ferrari F1 star Charles Leclerc enjoyed a short vacation in the coastal French town of Saint Tropez with wife Alexandra to possibly recharge his batteries and put the pain behind him after crashing out at his home Grand Prix in Monaco and finishing 15th at Barcelona.

Leclerc, 28, was seen chilling with Alexandra aboard a yacht - reportedly the 102-foot, 12 million (approx Rs 129cr) superyacht named Sedici that he bought last month. Also on board was his pet dog Leo and Leclerc's younger brother Arthur, a former F2 driver.

The Ferrari driver has had an up and down start to the season, picking up two podiums from the first seven races, but has largely been outshone by his teammate Lewis Hamilton, who won the last race in Barcelona, and sits second in the table with 115 points, 40 more than Leclerc. Leclerc will next be seen in action at the Austria GP on June 28.
