Vasseur relieved after Leclerc and Hamilton talks in Brazil

Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur says he feels relieved after a meeting in Sao Paulo with Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton, following their opening-lap clash in Mexico earlier in the month. Vasseur said the discussion cleared the situation and reset the team's mindset, adding that the pair left his office joking together.

Vasseur said he hopes the improved atmosphere will last, though he acknowledged it will require continued cooperation within the team. The clash had become an increasingly uncomfortable talking point during a difficult Ferrari campaign.

Asked after the Brazilian race about a particularly tense moment, Vasseur joked that his most stressful time was his morning workout, adding that he is more stressed when doing sport than during races.
