Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur believes the collision between Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc at the Italian Grand Prix "is not good for the team".

Hamilton and Leclerc collided on the opening corner of the race, which was won by Kimi Antonelli, while Leclerc then crashed out on lap two.

Ferrari only managed to score eight points after Hamilton's sixth-place finish; this is their second-worst performance at Monza in the last 12 years, after both their drivers retired in the 2020 edition.

After sharing retirements in their first year together (two each), Ferrari's three retirements in 2026 have all been for the Monegasque driver (Monaco, Barcelona, and Italy).

While Leclerc claimed both drivers were at fault for the incident, Hamilton said: "There was no 'we' in it. I don't race dirty; I've always raced clean and fairly and always left space."

It was a damaging result for the team as Mercedes extended their lead in the constructors' championship with a 1-2 finish.

Although the outcome was less than ideal for Ferrari, Vasseur does not think it is the right time to enforce new rules.

"We will have time to discuss it [with the drivers]. But the outcome of Turn 1-2 is not good for the team," said Vasseur.

"A good comparison that I made was that last year [Oscar] Piastri was leading the championship at this stage of the season, and if McLaren put everything on Piastri [instead of team-mate Lando Norris], Max Verstappen would have been champion.

"At one stage you have to take a decision, but it was too early to take a decision before Monza.

"Every single team principal in the world would love to let them race. To freeze positions is not an easy call. Now I will have time to discuss it with the drivers."
