Three Neapolitan thieves are said to have stolen, last April, an important wristwatch from the Monegasque Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc.
The newspaper Il Mattino wrote this today, reporting on investigations carried out by investigators from the Naples police headquarters. The criminals are said to be 'specialists' in away heists, but on this occasion they discovered only after the theft that they could not easily place the Richard Mille watch, handmade and bearing Leclerc's signature reproduced as a silkscreen on the case. It was precisely this element that forced them to 'sell off' the piece: the hypothesis, not confirmed, is that it was sold to a Spanish entrepreneur for a tenth of its value, around 200 thousand euros.
The three criminals are currently still free, awaiting further developments in the investigation. "They did a good job, organized, fast." This is how Charles Leclerc, the Formula 1 driver, robbed on Easter Monday in Viareggio, commented on the incident in front of the cameras of Striscia la Notizia.
Valerio Staffelli had reached Leclerc in Imola to deliver the golden tapir to the driver. Leclerc had answered with irony to Staffelli's questions, who pressed the driver: "If you had had your car, you would have captured them for sure". "They weren't bare-handed and I couldn't do much", Leclerc's response.
