Binotto sees difference with Red Bull: 'It's always a compromise'
- GPblog.com
Ferrari had a good feeling about the last two Grands Prix. In both England and Austria the Italian team managed to take victory. Mattia Binotto, however, knows that the battle will continue for a long time yet.
While Binotto's team started the season well, it then went through a long period without victories. In the last few races, however, Ferrari proved that it is far from giving up the title fight and that it is at least on a par with Red Bull Racing.
Binotto is satisfied with the last few weeks. "Very positive to win the last two races. It shows the car is still very competitive," he assessed in conversation with Sky Sports. "Each single race is a new fight and a new challenge. Max has been fast on the high fuel runs."
Ferrari faces challenge in France
This weekend Ferrari will face a new challenge. Not only is it very hot in France, but Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc seem to be balancing each other out. It will therefore come down to details which driver finishes the race winning.
"I think in Austria we matched the speed of the Red Bull. Here is different, I think red bull have a new rear wing. They will be faster in the straight, then we will be faster in the corners. It's always a compromise. It will be a long race, very hot."
