Charles Leclerc has outscored Carlos Sainz by 79 points to 53 in the last four races.
Fred Vasseur has quashed any hints of discontent with Carlos Sainz after being asked about the Spaniard’s state of mind with Charles Leclerc overhauling him as Ferrari ’s lead driver.
Sitting second in the Drivers’ Championship, the Monegasque driver is just 31 points down on championship leader Max Verstappen after his victory at the Monaco Grand Prix. Sainz, who was third on the day, is a further 30 points back. “He is a great professional, totally committed to the work, and I am convinced that his contribution will remain the same until the end of 2024. I am really satisfied with Carlos.”The Monaco Grand Prix result means both Ferrari team-mates have won a Grand Prix this season, the Italian team the only outfit to achieve that feat.
“At the same time, I believe the Monaco victory can help Charles increase his self-confidence. He had been waiting for a home race win for several years and had gone a long time without winning. Returning to victory always boosts self-esteem.
