Stefano Domenicali wants to make sure that they are focussed on development work – Formula 1 news
The team principal of Ferrari, Stefano Domenicali believes that they need to have a logical approach because there are ups and downs in this sport. They believe that they need to push hard so they may be able to compete with their competitors.
He told that they need to develop logical thinking so they may improve their performances over the circuit. He added that Red Bull were impressive over the Japanese circuit but they would analyze if it was a circuit of their strength or it was something
else. He told that he is not sure which factor gave Red Bull edge in the Japanese GP.
Domenicali said, “We saw this weekend for sure that Red Bull was impressive, so we need to see what we can do in order to match their development or if this track was better for them.”
Furthermore, he believes that they need put positive pressure over their engineers so they may be able to deliver the development in their car. He told that they keep developing their car to remain competitive but there is always uncertainty when a driver
starts from behind. He added that same thing happened when Fernando Alonso started from behind at the Belgian Grand Prix. Alonso was retired from the Belgian GP due to an accident in the very first lap of the race.
The Ferrari principal added that they will be trying to introduce upgrades for the upcoming grands prix but it depends how they are seen by others, as something major for them might not be major for others. The significance of the upgrades will be visible
during the race.
He said, “It depends what is a 'big step' for you; for sure we'll try to bring 'steps'. The reality of it will be seen on the track, but for sure the target is that every race there has to be something new that will have to be incorporated on the fact that
we have to improve the performance on every track.”
Domenicali told that their main motive will be to improve their performance in every upcoming race and this requires something new and different in all races.
It will be interesting to see the two big drivers, Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso, fighting for the Drivers’ Championship.
