IMOLA (ITALY), 20 Abr. (dpa / Ep) –
Red Bull adviser Helmut Marko on Wednesday named the Ferrari team the new leading team in Formula 1 for its dominance in the constructors’ and drivers’ championships, with Charles Lecrerc in the lead.
“Ferrari is good at any temperature, on any track and with any type of tyre”, explained Helmut Marko to ‘Sport Bild’ magazine about the Italian team, which will race in front of its fans this weekend at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix .
The Imola circuit will be the first of the season to include a sprint race, which will take place on Saturday. Leclerc leads the standings with 71 points after three races, although his teammate Carlos Sainz has yet to have the same success with the 2022 car and is in third position, behind George Russell by four points ( 37).
Red Bull star and defending champion Max Verstappen is already 71 points clear, having failed twice in his victory in Saudi Arabia. While Lewis Hamilton is sixth in the standings, with his Mercedes also struggling to adapt to the new regulations that began this season.
