Charles Leclerc and wife Alexandra announced the birth of their first child Wednesday, a daughter named Bianca.

Welcome to the world Bianca," while Oscar Piastri and Pierre Gasly added their messages. Ferrari posted "Huge congratulations to you both!!" and rival Mercedes sent their own. Four-time champion Alain Prost and former Ferrari teammate Jean Alesi chimed in, as did Max Verstappen's family and celebrities including Eva Longoria and Charlie Puth. F1 Academy couldn't resist: "Maybe we'll see her on the grid in the future."
The new father returns to action in Sao Paulo this weekend.
