Charles Leclerc is officially in the dad lane.
The Formula 1 driver and his wife Alexandra Leclerc became first-time parents after welcoming a baby girl on Nov. 3.

After sharing their baby's name, fans of the motorsport athlete have connected the dots between the moniker and that of Charles' late godfather and mentor, Jules Bianchi, who he described to Formula 1 as an older brother who was "always happy to help and very happy to have fun as well."
