The 24-year-old series leader, who is seeking to become Australia's first world champion since Alan Jones in 1980, had challenged the team's decision during the Monza race.

Speaking to reporters ahead of this weekend's Azerbaijan Grand Prix, he said there had been "good discussions" and the team were now "very aligned" on how to progress in the remaining eight races this year.

"Obviously it's a highly talked-about moment, but we've had a lot of discussions and clarified a lot of things," he said. "We know how we're going to go racing going forwards, which is the most important thing."

He refused to go into details or reveal what the team had discussed in particular.

"A lot that is to stay for us because, ultimately, if we give out that information then we become very easy targets to pick off because everyone knows what we're going to do," he said.

"That's all very aligned with all of us, but it stays in-house."
