Ferrari craving for more victories
Wednesday 3rd August 2011
Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo expects further victories when the Formula One season resumes following the summer break.
The Maranello marque ended a run of 10 grands prix without a win when Fernando Alonso triumphed at Silverstone last month, one that commemorated the team's first triumph 60 years previously at the same circuit.
Alonso has been a regular visitor to the podium at recent rounds yet remains 89 points adrift of reigning champion Sebastian Vettel, but Di Montezmolo is convinced Ferrari will push hard when the final eight races kick off in Belgium at the end of the month.
After meeting team principal Stefano Domenicali and the rest of the technical staff at Maranello on Tuesday, Di Montezemolo told ferrari.com: "I can see the right spirit in the team after a very difficult start to the season.
"Domenicali and his crew seem very determined, concentrating fully on their tasks for the second part of the year, which I am sure will feature Ferrari in the role of a key player.
"I expect we will pick up wins to add to the important and historically very significant victory achieved at Silverstone."
