The Ferrari team boss is aware that the moment Lewis Hamilton puts on the red suit, all hell will break loose. Despite this, Frederic Vasseur has indicated that he is not interested in that, only the achievements on the track count…
The Scuderia boss doesn’t care how much commotion there will be, he wants to focus solely on his work and expects the same from the new driver:
"I don't care about the fuss, we have to focus on the upcoming season. We have a very intense period ahead of us, starting with the presentation day, and I would like everyone to focus on the achievements. The season opener is coming, the presentation of the car, those are already two events that are more than enough. I want us to exclude the show and only focus on how we can be better. There will be the presentation of the car - those are already two events that in my opinion are too many. That's enough! I would like the improvement of performance to be the focus, not the show"

"It's always a big challenge because there are only six weeks from the beginning of January to the London presentation, and it won't be easy. But Lewis is already experienced in these things, he's not a novice, so I'm not worried about the pressure that awaits him. He'll only have a few days to adapt to everything before the tests, but we have our simulator where he can get to know the steering wheel, all the features of the car, he can do timing and race simulations. To that end, Milan will also have a second home so he can spend as much time with us as possible," the team boss mused about the tasks ahead.
