Mattia Binotto is hopeful that the Hungarian Grand Prix will provide Ferrari with the opportunity to show how fast their package can be. The Italian team are yet to win a race this season but are sitting second in the Constructors Championship. Sebastian Vettel will hope to take his pace from the German Grand Prix which saw him go from last place to second and compete for the win in Budapest.
“Budapest is a track where cooling is usually an important factor and where cars run in maximum downforce configuration,” Binotto was quoted by MotorsportWeek.com.
“The tyres come under a lot of stress, because of the type of corners and that even applies over a single lap in qualifying.
“It will be important to see if this race provides further confirmation that our car has improved on various types of track.
“We will be able to count on the various elements we introduced recently, as well as some aerodynamic updates.
“Of course, we are focusing on resolving our recent reliability problems to ensure they do not occur again.”
If Ferrari doesn't get the race win at Hungary then they will go into the summer break winless and will surely have to question what they've got wrong with their set up.
