Will Ferrari's fight this season be with Mercedes, and not with Red Bull? Can the German team fight? The reporter Felipe Leite analyzes the season for both teams in today's video
After the Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix, Mercedes has 188 points in the Constructors' World Championship, in third position, while second-placed Ferrari has 228. A reasonable distance of 40 points. But in the last four stages of the category, the Silver Arrows have an advantage over the Italian team: 93 to 71.
Meanwhile, Red Bull is shooting ahead, with 304. Instead of having a scenario in which the Taurus and Ferrari fight for first place and Mercedes consolidates itself as the third force, what the championship table shows is the energy team alone in the lead - and the team led by Mattia Binotto with Toto Wolff's squad close behind.
The thermometer of F1 2022 also shows this. Red Bull seems to have solved the reliability problems of the RB18 - even though Sergio Pérez abandoned it in Canada - while Ferrari has come to grips with repeated failures. This, while even with an erratic W13, Mercedes has Lewis Hamilton slowly making his way through the year and a George Russell driving very well, simply allergic to finishing outside the top-5 this season.
Could it be that Ferrari's fight is with Mercedes, and not with Red Bull? Can the German team fight? Reporter Felipe Leite analyzes the season for both teams in today's video.
