Ferrari, on the other hand, which will have to face important team problems following the now announced break between the Maranello team and its “repudiated” driver Sebastian Vettel.
“La Rossa” has already confirmed and publicly announced Sainz and Leclerc, as official drivers of the next season. A refusal for the German Vettel, whom many fans hope will not negatively influence the stimuli and performance of these last races with Ferrari.
