Haas tries to bring the drivers together
Creating videos like this about all parts of the team is not only good for marketing the team, it also gives riders a chance to connect with each other. This has resulted in good friendships on the grid. From Vettel and Leclerc, Gasly and Tsunoda and even Norris and Ricciardo. As a result, these activities could help with the discomfort between the two drivers.
The animosity between the two drivers exploded during the Dutch GP weekend. Since then, tensions have flared up to such an extent that team boss Günther Steiner is left helpless. “You have to learn to fight, but you have to do it without causing harm, without harming yourself or the team.”

The two fight for a better position at the bottom of the grid to win the incompetent machine. Steiner realizes that this could be a cause for further conflict between the two. “It’s very difficult right now because we’re in a position where there’s nothing to fight except for [fighting] each other.”
