- Ferrari expects mutual respect and professional conduct.

## Summary

Ferrari held a meeting to address the clash between Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc at the Mexico City Grand Prix, after their battle cost the team a possible one-two finish. Team principal Frederic Vasseur said both drivers had clarified their positions and were now focused on the Sao Paulo race, while Hamilton said he remained frustrated.

Vasseur said the team’s guidelines were unchanged: the drivers must respect each other and Ferrari, and work professionally rather than be expected to become friends. Hamilton had started from pole in Mexico, but both Ferraris ran off track during their opening-corner fight, giving Max Verstappen the chance to win. Leclerc missed Sao Paulo’s first practice session, with Dino Beganovic taking his place; Mercedes boss Toto Wolff compared the episode to Hamilton’s past rivalry with Nico Rosberg.
