Brundle: Two of the biggest brands in the history of Formula 1
Speaking on Sky Sports, Martin Brundle pointed out that it may be hard work for Fred to manage both Leclerc and Hamilton when they are team-mates.
“Listening to Fred [Vasseur] there, I wonder if 100 per cent of Fred Vasseur is happy about the disruption that’s going to happen when Lewis joins the team,” he said.
“Whether he would probably be – it's a part of him would be happier with just the calm setup that he’s got with Sainz and Leclerc.
“Two of the biggest brands in the history of Formula 1 – Ferrari and Hamilton, marrying up and seeing what he can do out on the track. In the media, we love it don’t we?”
The season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix couldn’t have started much worse for Leclerc or Hamilton, who suffered problems and were left lagging behind their rivals.
