He did as a result of injuries following a 150mph collision at the famous Eau Rogue turn at
Spa-Francorchamps.
Family and friends paid tribute to him at the Chartres Cathedral in Northern France on Tuesday afternoon.
A huge portrait of the Formula 2 driver was displayed on a giant screen outside and flowers filled the inside of the cathedral.
And a selection of crash helmets were laid onto the chairs ahead of the ceremony.
Leclerc, who dedicated his Belgian GP win to close pal Hubert by climbing out of the cockpit and pointing to the sky, was in attendance.
Hubert's lifelong friend Pierre Gasly, 23, also paid his respect for the Frenchman.
Gasly and the Formula 2 driver learned to race together, studied together and even lived together for six years.
Former world champion Alain Prost was present after insisting the 22-year-old's death has highlighted how motor racing needs to make safety "even better".
