World Champion Ferrari? Binotto is not talking about it yet
- GPblog.com
Ferrari are back. The Italian team won the first Grand Prix and currently leads both championships. Yet Ferrari are not getting ahead of themselves. The season is still very long.
Fighting
Mattia Binotto was not to be envied in recent seasons. From Italy the pressure is always high: Ferrari must perform however, that has been far from the case in recent years. Ferrari have languished in the midfield, with the occasional podium finish. Therefore, for 2022 it had to change course. For now, with success.
In conversation with Bild Binotto admitted that there was indeed pressure. Now that the season has started so strongly, the atmosphere in the home country has completely changed. Meanwhile, there is talk of the world title. Even Binotto is keeping an open mind. When asked about a goal, he said: "In every race, fight for the victory."
No favorite
Binotto remained modest, as the season is still long. "Continued development will be key this season for the second part of the championship. We are enjoying this good start. But we are ready to fight at every race to maintain this level of performance, as we firmly believe that last year's world champions are still the favorites."
