Ferrari gets outside support: 'All of them know that'
- GPblog.com
Ferrari was not on the podium with the team in Spain on Sunday afternoon after the retirement of Charles Leclerc and the fourth place of Carlos Sainz. As a result, Max Verstappen took over the leadership in the world championship, but according to David Tremayne, this does not have to be a problem for the formation yet.
The Italian racing team started the season extremely well, with Leclerc building up a lead of more than forty points over Verstappen. It turned out not to be enough, as in the past Grands Prix some strong performances by the Dutchman caused Ferrari to struggle.
Ferrari must go to Monaco with confidence
In Barcelona, Ferrari showed clear progress with several updates, only in this case the engine proved not to be reliable enough. Tremayne let on Formula1.com that Ferrari must above all stay relaxed and get the highest performance out of itself again in Monaco to make it difficult for Red Bull again.
"The engine problem occurred in full sight of some top brass, but all of them know from the Scuderia’s lengthy history that such things happen," the journalist stated. "Whatever happens on Sunday afternoon, the team must keep their head."
