Fred Vasseur summons Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz: a pact is made
Today at 08:29 AM
Fred Vasseur requested a meeting with Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz after the fallout from Las Vegas. The two Ferrari drivers left the Strip as if they were at odds, creating a less-than-flattering image of Ferrari, with the pair showing signs of internal discord.
On the surface, Leclerc and Sainz appear to have a good relationship, and no one doubts that this is genuinely the case. However, on track, they seem to be fiercely competitive. Charles Leclerc's team radio message at the checkered flag in Las Vegas hinted that the rivalry between the two is as intense as ever.
Fred Vasseur's Clear Request: The Pact Between the Two Drivers
On one side, Charles Leclerc accuses Carlos Sainz of not showing him respect. On the other, Carlos Sainz refrains from commenting and insists that everything he does is for the team's benefit. Fred Vasseur, caught in the middle, was compelled to intervene to prevent further issues.
According to reports from Leo Turrini, the Ferrari team principal immediately arranged a meeting with the two drivers to clear the air and establish a mutual agreement to avoid further conflicts. Fred Vasseur's request was unequivocal: "No one is asking you to be best friends, but Ferrari demands that you behave in a way that is fair to the team." – the Italian journalist revealed.
It seems that both drivers were willing to make this pact to keep the Constructors' Championship hopes alive in the battle against McLaren. Scuderia Ferrari needs to score as many points as possible in the final two races to try to bring back a Constructors' Championship to Italy—a title the team has not claimed since 2008.
Indeed, Fred Vasseur is determined to ensure that Ferrari does not miss out on something significant due to one driver's egotism or their ongoing clashes. Now, more than ever, teamwork is paramount for Ferrari.
