Fittipaldi notices Ferrari rewarding itself: 'See you back in the standings'

The fact that Ferrari would have the fastest car this season, many F1 fans did not see coming prior to the 2022 season. Still, the Italian team is ahead in both championships after three races. Add to that Red Bull Racing's retirements and it can be concluded that Ferrari have their affairs in order this year.

Emerson Fittipaldi sees that too, as he explains at Vegasinsider. "To me, Ferrari has the best package of the year. They look reliable, they look fast in different conditions, in different tracks. They got around the new rules better than anybody else."

Will Ferrari become champions?

The Brazilian thinks it will be between Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz for the drivers' title this year. Currently, the Monegasque is firmly in the lead there, but Fittipaldi notes that Sainz is a real racer and will therefore come back strong from the setbacks in Melbourne.

In 2021, Ferrari decided to stop developing their car early in order to come out as strong as possible with the new regulations. Fittipaldi sees that the team is now reaping the benefits of this. "They focused on this year's car and it's showing in the results now. Last year was a frustrating year for Ferrari. This year is the opposite. They are the team to win the championship."
