Enrique Scalabroni, a former Ferrari engineer, believes that Ferrari must decide who the team from Maranello will target if they are to compete with Red Bull Racing for the world title.

Making choices

Carlos Sainz's victory at Silverstone thrilled Ferrari fans and connoisseurs alike, but it also sparked debate. This created a rift between two divergent opinions in Italy, especially after Charles Leclerc's third win of the season at the Red Bull Ring last weekend.

"At this level, where they have to make up a lot of points per force on Verstappen and Red Bull, they have to find a system where there is a first driver and a supporting driver, who has to work for the team's profit," Scalabroni said in the Italian F1 Sport podcast.

Williams comparison

For him it doesn't matter so much whether it will be Leclerc or Sainz, because it's about the team. He compared the situation with Williams in 1986. "If the team wants to win, it should not go the way it did with Mansell and Piquet."

According to Scalabroni, Ferrari should bet on the driver who has more points and has had fewer problems and go for the team in this way.
