The F1 season may have screeched to a frenetic end in terms of the championship season, but that hasn’t stopped the wheels turning behind the scenes.
Drivers from all team garages are still reporting for duty before theuy officially head away for the festive period, with one of the concluding acts this weeks coming in the form of the annual FIA ceremony, hosting a glitz of names from the sports illustrious past and present.
Lewis Hamilton, as ever, was front and centre during proceedings. The Mercedes talisman and living F1 legend took time aside to address the room regarding the performance and development of his arch rival Max Verstappen, as the Dutchman delighted in the showering of praise.
Verstappen was in simply unstoppable form over the past 12 months, and many pundits and fans alike believe it is likely to be impossible to catch him in the near future.
One man who has sights firmly set on doing so is Ferrari pin-up Charles Leclerc, who this week has had the rule ran over him by the iconic Johnny Herbert. Herbert sat down exclusively with Express Sport to digest the campaign and speak all things F1 going forward.
