Hamilton says he has moved on from Leclerc dispute

Lewis Hamilton has said he has moved on from his clash with Ferrari team-mate Charles Leclerc at the Mexico Grand Prix, which had cast a shadow over the team. The incident saw Leclerc make an aggressive move that helped Max Verstappen win, and Hamilton had earlier said Leclerc races him harder than any other driver on the grid.

Team principal Fred Vasseur met the two drivers before the Sao Paulo Grand Prix and said the matter had been drawn to a close. Hamilton said the talks were productive and that the drivers had a good, open discussion, adding that everything is now good and they will move on.

In Brazil the pair were wheel-to-wheel again, but they gave each other more respect than in Mexico. Vasseur said the two situations could not be compared, as the race lead was not at stake in Brazil.
