Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur delivered a clear message to drivers Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc following the Mexico Grand Prix, stating that Ferrari's interests come first. The comment came after the race at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez on November 6, 2026, as the Scuderia continues its push in the Formula 1 championship battle.
Vasseur's "Ferrari is coming first" stance underscores the team's priority of collective success over individual driver ambitions. Both Hamilton and Leclerc are contracted to Ferrari for the 2026 season, with the seven-time world champion having joined the Italian squad from Mercedes.
The Mexico Grand Prix marked another chapter in Ferrari's 2026 campaign, where the team has been fighting for race wins and podium finishes. Vasseur's public reinforcement of team orders philosophy signals a unified approach as the season progresses toward its conclusion.
