Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo feels pleased with his team – Formula 1 news
Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo feels pleased with the performance of his team in the season so far despite facing difficulties during the start.
The Scarlet team struggled with F2012 throughout the pre-season testing programme. Moreover, they expressed that they might not be able to perform well in the first few races.
However, they have made some good progress and have performed quite convincingly as they are standing on third place in the constructors’ championship with 86 points. In addition, they are 22 points behind McLaren and 25 points ahead of Mercedes AMG.
Meanwhile, their driver, Fernando Alonso is leading the drivers’ championship with 76 points and he is 3 points ahead of Red Bull Racing pair of drivers, Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber.
Furthermore, it will be important to mention that Alonso’s teammate, Felipe Massa who could only score 2 points in the first five grands prix also showed an impressive performance in the last race in Monte Carlo as he secured 6th place finish after setting
off from 7th grid position.
Montezemolo said that they have worked very hard and admired all the team’s efforts. Besides, he said that he has a complete faith in his team principal, Stefano Domenicali and praised the performance of his drivers, Alonso and Massa.
 “We have always been at top,” he said. “In this sport, it's difficult to win, but even harder to constantly stay at top. At the beginning of year, I was very disappointed in car as it was not what I had expected it to be, but we have fantastic people in
team. I push them very hard, they work day and night. I have every confidence in Domenicali, in whom I invested for future. Alonso is fantastic and I am also very pleased with how Massa's weekend went in Monaco: I'm counting on him to take valuable points
off our competitors.”
Over and above, he said that they need to keep on making the essential developments and the necessary preparations so as to improve the pace of their car for the forthcoming races in order to fight for the championship title this year.
