Ferrari Formula 1 boss Fred Vasseur has downplayed the prospect of Jeddah rookie sensation Olivier Bearman eventually graduating to a race seat with the Maranello team.
The Frenchman says that the 18-year-old should concentrate on his F2 programme and make the most of the Haas FP1 running that he has lined up, after he successfully stood in for Carlos Sainz in Saudi Arabia.

Vasseur stressed that he has to continue to learn and show improvement. “You have to consider Jeddah is a step, not the final target,” he said.
