Sebastian Vettel is back in the lead in the championship race, and Ferrari test driver Marc Gené thinks that this could be the German's year to win it all for the Italian outfit.

Ferrari's engine upgrade proved vital in Canada, as Vettel took home pole position as well as the win in Montréal. He never really looked in danger, as he dominated throughout the whole race.

Gené, as a part of the team, has noticed a difference in atmosphere at Ferrari.

"The team is much more compact and united," he told Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo.

"We're working with a young team now, but it's working very well.

"We've learned a lot from the tough years.

"That's why this year could be Vettel's year, but it won't be easy."

Vettel has a one-point advantage over Lewis Hamilton in the championship, but Mercedes are still leading Ferrari in the constructors' championship by seventeen points. However, we're only one third into the season, so in these last fourteen races, anything can still happen!
