Sebastian Vettel says there is no problem between himself and Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc following their clash at the Brazilian Grand Prix, believing talk of any tension is nothing more than outsid♓e hype.

Vettel and Leclerc collided while battling for fourth place at Interlagos💟 two weeks ago, causing both drivers to retire with five laps ꦬremaining in the race.

The incident was labelled “silly” by Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto, who held talks with both d🌞ri💞vers at Maranello to discuss what happened ahead of the season finale in Abu Dhabi.

Leclerc 🍰said on Thursday that both Ferrari drivers remained f🐼ree to race, while Binotto refused to be drawn on the discussions, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:wishing to keep them private.

Speaking to the media for the first t🤪ime in Abu Dhabi on Friday after missing Thursday’s duties, Vettel stressed the relationship with Leclerc remained good.

“Obviously it’s unfortunate what happene﷽d, and we want to make sure it doe𒐪sn’t happen again,” Vettel said. “That’s clear. That’s the most important [thing].

“The key for me is that we get along, we don’t have a problem with each other. I know that the o💜utside tri🔯es to hype this a little bit, but actually there’s nothing to worry about from the inside.

“I think the lesson is that if we race each other th♔an we need to give each other in thꦅat regard more room to make sure that we don’t touch.

“It was a very little toꦕuch, but the touch led to a reꩲsult.”

The incident ended🎐 Vettel's hopes of finishing third in the drivers' championship this year, while Leclerc needs to outscore Ma๊x Verstappen by 12 points if he is to overhaul the Dutchman in Abu Dhabi this weekend.
