Ferrari boss Frederic Vasseur was visibly angry in Friday’s FIA press conference following the cancelled FP1 session at the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
FP1 was shortened after only eight minutes due to a loose drain cover, which caused severe damage to Carlos Sainz’s Ferrari and Esteban Ocon’s Alpine. Both teams had to make chassis changes as a result. Vasseur, along with Toto Wolff, Zak Brown, and James Vowles, appeared in the FIA press conference after FP1. Vasseur expressed his anger, refusing to discuss the Las Vegas event, stating that the damage caused was completely unacceptable and cost them a significant amount of money. Despite attempts by Wolff to calm the situation, Vasseur remained firm in his stance. The interviewer then turned to the other team bosses for their responses.
