“I started a discussion with Carlos and Carlos’ man💜agement when I w🌳as at Renault, to attract him and to sign the contract,” Vasseur said.
“Then he joined [Renault] a bit later. When I was at Sauber I tried to sign Carlos again without success and I said ‘OK, if I want to [work with] Carlos, the best way is to join 𒊎the team where he is!
“We’ve always had a very good relationship, I trust him ꧅and I think he showed in the last couple of years that he is a ൩potential winner, that he’s very important for the team.”
Despite already enjoying a strong relationship with Sainz’s teammate, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc, Vasseur insists he will 168𓆉澳洲5最新开奖结果:not be favouring eith🐽er of his drivers at the start of the new campaign.
"We won't have a 💛number one and number two,” Vasseur stressed.
