Ferrari had a torrid time in Mexico with its leading car finishing nearly a minute off the race winner. But Mercedes and Red Bull feel the Scuderia's struggles were not a true reflection of its form — and expect the squad to bounce back. F1
With Mercedes having enjoyed an uplift in form over recent races, Ferrari’s performances have prompted suggestions that Red Bull’s main threat is now the German car manufacturer rather than the Italian squad.Asked if Red Bull regarded Mercedes as its strongest competitor in F1, team boss Christian Horner said: “I think this track has played to their strengths. I think Ferrari looked like they were a little bit handicapped this weekend, so I’m not sure we saw their real pace.
Pushed on if he felt Mercedes was ahead of Ferrari, Wolff said: “I wouldn't want to say that, because they are a strong team and we’ve had a few strong Sundays now. However, team principal Mattia Binotto said that a lack of power did not offer a full explanation for why it was so far adrift of Red Bull and Mercedes.
