Ferrari team boss Mattia Binotto is satisfied with the third place that Charles Leclerc managed to achieve in the British Grand Prix. However, he says that third place is the best they can hope for at the moment and is not satisfied with the performance of the car.

Happy with Leclerc's performance

“Leclerc was very good yesterday and today in managing the tyres, we knew we had an advantage in qualifying, he did a good job on that front. He was very patient, he was never pushed in fast corners, he went slow to get to the end. He handled the race well and was rewarded at the end," says Binotto to Sky Italia.

Despite the third place, the Ferrari team boss is moderately satisfied with the performance of the SF1000. "The least beautiful part of the day is our performance. Third place is the best we can hope for at the moment, it is clear that our drivers can't be comfortable", the Italian said.

Future

Binotto says they will dive deep into the data at Ferrari to see how they can fix the balance issues. He ends with a word about the future at Ferrari:

“I feel comfortable in this company, for many years, we share the same vision and the same goals with those responsible and I thank Dr. Camilleri and Dr. Elkann for their support. The team is cohesive, the current situation is not easy, we must understand the mistakes, improve, but the team is united and hungry to do better.”
