Helmut Marko has rubbished Sergio Perez's claim that Ferrari would have won even if Max Verstappen didn't retire from the Australian Grand Prix.
After the race, Perez, who finished a lacklustre P5, felt that Ferrari were going to win irrespective of Verstappen’s issue.
“We were struggling already from Friday and we never got on top of the management of tyres. I think we just have to understand and make sure we are able to improve.” Marko feels that the outcome of the Australian GP “would have been completely different” as Verstappen was able to keep up with Sainz “relatively easily.”
