Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur told Sky Sports: “The fight between the four teams is so tight.“Between the two stints we were faster than the others. Lando Norris was back to the pace on the second one.“Optimistic? We showed a good pace from Monza.“We will be competitive in Sao Paulo but it’s so tight that anyone could win.”
This weekend in Brazil, Ferrari could deal a further blow to their rivals after Carlos Sainz brilliantly won in Mexico. The rise of the famous Formula 1 team can only be good news for Hamilton, who will join next year when he exits Mercedes.And if Ferrari’s form continues in the final three rounds of this season, they could welcome Hamilton into a championship-winning environment.“McLaren are looking in the rear-view mirror at them. Ferrari are fast on different types of circuits.“I think it will ebb and flow. But Ferrari look super strong now.
Danica Patrick analysed: “The most important aspect for Ferrari is that they went from a qualifying car, but not a race car, last year to not really a qualifying car, but a race car.“This will go back and forth and will reside upon whether you make good changes in the weekends, making good decisions, getting lucky, putting yourself in good positions.
