Milan, 31 July (LaPresse) ‘Hamilton's arrival? I didn't have high expectations, but I was curious to see how I would get on with Lewis. However, there is a long way to go, and for now, I am focused solely on getting Ferrari back to the top.’ These were the words of Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc during the drivers' press conference ahead of the Hungarian Grand Prix. ‘I'm happy with my recent performances and we need to keep it up. Lewis is understanding and learning in a team that's different from the one he's been in in the past,’ he added. ‘I'm very happy about Vasseur's renewal, which is new for us. But I'm happy about the rumours that have been circulating around the team in recent months. Fred has an incredible vision.’ ‘At Ferrari, the emotional aspect is important, the Italian passion is extreme, but Fred knows how to put things aside to have a clear vision. And he has many other qualities, such as knowing how to get the most out of everyone,’ added the Monegasque driver. Leclerc is looking forward to the race in Hungary with confidence. "The car has allowed us to fight for the podium in recent weekends, but we can't say we're the second team in the fight. But we're heading in the right direction,‘ said Leclerc, ’even if this weekend's track isn't the best for me. Maybe it's my driving style, I don't know where my difficulties here come from.‘ ’They say it's like Monaco? Maybe I miss the walls that are there…" said Leclerc.
