We've been getting along just fine, as normal."So sometimes in those scenarios, it just takes having a conversation and there's been no demands from either side. It's just been both giving our points and areas that we can do better and support each other."Hamilton demanded "serious talks" with the team after last weekend and again demanded a written rule of engagement to govern how they race each other.The pair will be separated in Brazil on Sunday, with Hamilton at the back and Leclerc 14th after engine penalties.Leclerc says his new arrival put the row with Hamilton into perspective and believes the matter became bigger than it was."At the end of the day, when things like this week happen for me, you forget about everything," Leclerc told written media."I mean, the time where I've had Bianca in my arms, there wasn't much more or much else in my head."And that's been the case until probably Thursday night when I arrived and when it was time to speak with Fred and Lewis."So, yeah, it was a very special moment. And for sure it helps you put into perspective. But these discussions are also important and what we do on track is important."
