Hamilton resignation? That’s what the Ferrari boss says

After qualifying, the seven -time world champion had caused a sensation with his statements at the great price of Hungary. Now Fred Vasseur has reacted – with clear words.

Ferrari team boss Fred Vasseur commented on the speculation about the end of the career of Lewis Hamilton-and clearly denied the star pilot: “No, no, he will definitely continue for us,” said Vasseur after Hungary’s Grand Prix on Sunday at Sky.

Hamilton had ended the race in twelve – and caused a sensation in advance. “It is always up to me. I am useless,” said Hamilton after twelve in qualifying on Saturday evening at Sky and letting thoughts say about his future: “The team is good, the car is on Pole-the team probably has to change the driver,” said the completely frustrated coordinated world champion, who was able to win eight times at Hungaroring.

Because while team -mate Charles Leclerc was able to secure pole position and can be found more regularly in the front places, the veteran does not run at Ferrari at all in the first year. More than 3 fourth places in the first 14 races of the season have so far not jumped out.

“We spoke yesterday afternoon, last night, this morning. I understand Lewis’s reaction,” said Ferrari team boss Vasseur. Hamilton is “very demanding to the team and me. But most of all towards himself. The 40-year-old” is seven-time world champion because he has this attitude to push everyone, especially himself. “

Therefore, his current mood is understandable: “You understand your frustration yesterday” – however: “If you look at the whole weekend: at the beginning he was in front of Charles in Q1 (the first section in qualifying, editor), then he was flown in and flew out in Q2. I wanted to say: It is not as bad as Hamilton is perceiving it itself.

With demonstrative security, Vasseur said: “He will come back, he will fight again.” Even if the first 14 races in the Ferrari did not run as Lewis Hamilton had imagined.
