Seidl: Ferrari on hunt for the third place

Seidl thinks Ferrari pushing for 3rd

Andreas Seidl, McLaren Formula 1 team boss, believes that the Ferrari is on the hunt for third place on Constructors’ Championship ranking.

The Italian F1 team exhibited their best this season at Turkish Grand Prix. The duo, Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc, returned to its form last weekend with third and fourth on drivers standing.

The performance showed the team’s capacity to perform in strenuous situations. Currently, it holds the sixth position with 130 points and 24 points shy from the third-place contender, Racing Point.

McLaren, holding the fourth position with 149 points, had a rough qualifying session at Turkey. The team managed to limit the damage which helped its recovery to fifth and eight places for Carlos Sainz and Lando Norris.

Seidl contemplated that Ferrari will be battling for the third position. Unfortunately, his team does not have the machine to gain or retain third and fourth place.

“It was obviously great for us to score this result because it kept us in the fight for the constructors’ championship,” he said.

“Which is good, but we definitely do not have I would say the third or fourth quickest car at the moment in this battle.

“And with what we’ve seen also from Ferrari, one more good result and suddenly it’s a fight between four teams for this P3, P4, P5, P6.”

Seidl added that Ferrari has turned the tables and shall not be underestimated.

“I’m not worried or concerned, I’m just realistic,” Seidl said.

“I know what a team like Ferrari with all the resources they are having can do. And it’s not a surprise that they are coming back during the season.

“So we never underestimated this power that Ferrari has. They have two great drivers, and obviously a great team. So that’s the reality we’re in.

“We have a competitive car, which is aggressive compared to last year. We have now I don’t know how many points, probably after this number of races already more than last year, which shows again that we made a great step forward with the team.

“But at the same time, we have very strong competitors. And we just hope we can keep this battle alive until the last race. We will give it all as a team.”
