Ferrari boss Mattia Binotto has denied that his team are looking to switch their attention to next season's car despite their struggles this season.

Ferrari have failed to win a race this season and lag a huge 150 points behind Mercedes in the constructors' standings.

After a disappointing campaign, Ferrari would be forgiven for looking towards next year already, but Binotto says that this is not the case.

"Should we concentrate [entirely] on next year’s car? I don’t think so,” according to Motorsport.com.

“Not only because having the same regulations next year, whatever we can do this year will be a good benefit for next year’s car as well.

“There are still many races and, so far, no victory for Ferrari, so I think we have a goal and a target and I think we should do whatever we can to finish this season to do our best.”
