Brawn: “It won’t be long before Ferrari knocks on the door of the Top 2”

At its lowest in 2020, Ferrari gradually gets back on the right path. If the victories and the podiums are not yet there, the latest results have been encouraging.

« There is no doubt that the SF21 is a much better car than last year, underlines Ross Brawn as the Scuderia left Barcelona with 18 points thanks to the 4th and 7th places of Charles Leclerc et Carlos Sainz.

It won't be long before Ferrari knocks on the door of the Top 2 (Mercedes et Red Bull). And that is quite remarkable considering their 2020 season. The team is at a very high level at the moment and they have a package that has proven to perform well on the different types of circuits visited. The car looks good on the track. We don't have the feeling that she doesn't deserve to be where she is. ».

The former technical director of the Scuderia also praised the duo Charles Leclerc – Carlos Sainz whose work allowed Ferrari to regain part of its aura. “ There is a good dynamic between the two and the benefits of this relationship should not be underestimated.

The cooperation and good atmosphere between the two drivers helps Ferrari move forward. When they have the right car, they will achieve victories. There is no doubt ».
