The Maranello team had a disappointing outing at the British Grand Prix

Ferrari team boss Frederic Vasseur expressed his believe that Ferrari can bounce back from the disappointing weekend at the British Grand Prix, where the team had to settle for 9th and 10th.

The Frenchman believes that the result is not performance related, but rather uncertainty about tire degradation, which forced the team to act more complacent.

“Starting P4 and P5, we had the feeling after quali that we could have done a much better job than this,” Vasseur reflected. “We can’t be happy finishing P9, P10, but now we need to have a deep look on the weekend, not just on the race.”

“I think we didn’t do the long stint on Friday, we [only did a] long stint on only the soft compound and Charles was stuck in the garage [with technical problems], and we were a bit scared with the deg.”

As Formula 1 approaches Hungaroring, Vasseur shared his hope that the different circuit layout may favor the red cars, though plenty of work is still to be done.
