Ferraris Motivation Is Unwavering
Stefanos point about the motivation of the staff at the factory is a right one. Its a bit like the people at Honda over the winter, working flat out with deep concerns that they were perhaps a day away from being made redundant.
In Turkey we will have another step. We are pretty sure that our competitors will do a step again.
Felipe Massa agreed with his boss assessment, I think we are still missing a little bit of downforce. So we are still missing slightly a little bit of grip on the car. So, for me they have a little bit to a greater extent grip than us, and they can work a little bit better on the tyres, so they can work a little bit better on the qualifying to prepare the car in the right way.
Sometimes in the race we show a great gait, in the conditions you fight, but we are still missing a little bit to a greater extent downforce and a bit of grip. We need to use better the tyres, especially in qualifying, and also when it is necessary.
Not being forced into a dramatic cull of staff and the F1 blog in one go is one point on which all the teams are agreed.
Asked where the Ferrari is still lacking speed Stefano said, I think downforce is the most important thing that we need to recover. This will help a lot in high speed corners.
