Arrivabene calls for calm at Ferrari

Ferrari team principal Maurizio Arrivabene insists his team need to remain calm after Mercedes have regained the momentum in this season's constructors' championship.

The Ferrari team principal has made a plea that his side need to remain calm as they aim to catch up with Mercedes when the summer break is over.

Lewis Hamilton has won two consecutive races, meaning Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel has lost serious ground in the drivers' standings.

Twenty-four points is now the gap between the German and the Brit - following his crash at the German Grand Prix and a mixture of things in Hungary.

Maurizio Arrivabene is remaining positive despite the recent hiccup, and was full of praise for members of his Ferrari team.

"At a track where overtaking in the race is always difficult, we managed to finish higher up the order than we started, thanks to the efforts of the entire team and a great performance from both drivers," Arrivabene explained to The Checkered Flag.

With it being just over halfway in the Formula One season, and the summer break commencing, Arrivabene calls for everyone to stay chilled.

"Now we still have one week at work before the summer break, which allows us to reflect calmly on the races yet to come," Arrivabene added.

"There is still a long way to go this season and the important thing is for the team to work in a calm and determined fashion, giving its all during the second half of the season."
