Leclerc: 'Seb shouldn't have gone to the left, and he knows it'

ABU DHABI -- Charles Leclerc has vowed to be less aggressive when racing Sebastian Vettel, but says he and his Ferrari teammate will not face sanctions if they clash again on track.

Leclerc and Vettel both retired from the Brazilian Grand Prix after colliding while fighting for fourth position. The incident saw the two drivers touch wheels on the straight after Vettel, who had been passed by Leclerc in the previous set of corners, attempted to squeeze his teammate towards the inside of the track as he came back past.

Ferrari boss Mattia Binotto said the incident would be analysed once the team had returned to Italy and in his first media appearance since Brazil, Leclerc revealed they both took part of the blame.
