Flavio Briatore sees redder future in F1

Flavio Briatore’s words

Flavio Briatore in Riformista analyzed what happened in Montreal: “At the Canadian Grand Prix the usual absolute supremacy of one driver, Max Verstappen, was staged. His teammate Checo Perez, on the other hand, was far behind, proving that not only the car must be good but also the driver must be up to the task. On Sunday we saw the three most important champions of Formula 1 on the podium, it was a podium that elevated the three best forces and drivers in the circus.”

“I break a spear for the Ferraris, who this time, although they remained behind in the standings (in fourth and fifth position), had a race pace very close to Aston Martin and very close to Mercedes. It is perhaps the first time this year that we see the Maranello Reds keeping a very similar pace to the English and German. It’s not all doom and gloom, of course. Ferrari got qualifying wrong and that penalized them by forcing them into the middle of the pack, however, some red hope was seen. Now we wait for the next grands prix, we wait for Ferrari to continue on this path hoping that Aston Martin closes the gap with RedBull even if the world championship seems to me already assigned to a rampant Max Verstappen.”
