The F1 season for 2025 may be over, but the drivers are having some fun this holiday season with their own brand of Secret Santa. The championship drivers are all giving each other secret presents, and it's taking the fans out with their brand of hilariousness.

Pierre Gasly's gag gift to Charles Leclerc - a book titled 'How to Be a Good Husband?' - had both Leclerc as well as the fans in a split, and now the Ferrari driver seems to have turned the tables.George Russell, who competes for the Mercedes team, got Charles Leclerc as his Secret Santa. And the Ferrari star gave him a very special photo frame, a moment captured in the camera that left Russell completely gob smacked, so much so that he decided to skip wishing his friend cum competitors a Merry Christmas. So what exactly did Leclerc give Russell?

Charles Leclerc had a special moment framed for George Russell

The official YouTube channel of F1 recently dropped a video for the 2025 F1 Secret Santa, where every driver from across all the teams played Secret Santa to another, and each gift seems better than the other.

After Pierre Gasly's gift to Charles Leclerc, the latter turned out to be the Secret Santa for George Russell, who he gave a photo frame - with the photo of the Zandvoort overtake moment from earlier that season.

For the unversed, Leclerc overtook Russell at the Dutch Grand Prix, and then had the photo of that moment framed to give to him, alongside a video of that. 'Naughty' Secret Santa indeed. When asked if he would have it placed in his living room, Russell was seen laughing before he added, "I'm lost for words..."

Anyone would be, to be fair.

George Russell will not be wishing Charles Leclerc a Merry Christmas

After he got the gift from Charles Leclerc, George Russell was asked if he would like to wish Charles Leclerc a Merry Christmas. And to be fair, he was spot on to decline. He said, "Not really, to be honest, not really." He then went on to add, "Maybe I'll get him another photo of Kimi crashing him out of the race," reminding fans of yet another crucial moment from that race. At the 2025 Dutch Grand Prix, Kimi Antonelli spun Leclerc out of the race only a little while after he had overtaken Russell. He did it once more at the Brazilian Grand Prix at Sao Paulo during a multi-car crash. McLaren's Oscar Piastri had hit Antonelli, which led to the latter pushing into Leclerc, causing the Ferrari to bow out of the race. Watch out Charles, you might have the tables turned once again, if Russell comes up with his own gift for you! Also Read: Pierre Gasly’s Secret Santa gift for Charles Leclerc goes viral
