Another solid weekend for Scuderia Ferrari, scoring 18 points yesterday afternoon at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace circuit courtesy of a fifth place for Charles Leclerc and a sixth for Carlos Sainz. It means the Maranello team makes a significant step forward in terms of the Constructors’ classification, as its lead over McLaren has extended to 31.5 points.
Mattia Binotto, Ferrari Team Principal, comments and impressions at the end of the 2021 Brazilian Grand Prix at the Interlagos circuit:
“A good result in terms of the championship, given that we have doubled our lead over our closest rivals in the Constructors’ classification. Having said that, a 31.5 point lead doesn’t mean that it’s done and dusted, far from it. We know the situation can change in an instant and that our opponents are very strong. During what proved to be a busy weekend, the team, both at the track and back in Maranello, worked very hard and with great precision, tackling every situation with the right approach. Today, every aspect of the race was managed well – strategy, tyre management and pit stops – and the drivers produced a clean and effective performance. There are now just three races to go and we must continue in this fashion to reach what has become our goal for the end of season.” – the Ferrari boss concluded, as reported by the Maranello team’s official website after the race.
