Ferrari boss Fred Vasseur emphasized that maintaining second place in the Formula 1 Constructors’ Championship is crucial for the team in 2025, more so than winning a race. Despite having not claimed a Grand Prix victory yet, Ferrari is the only top team in the standings without a win. Lewis Hamilton’s Sprint Race triumph in China marked a rare highlight in a lackluster season for Ferrari. Vasseur highlighted the significance of preserving their 20-point lead over Mercedes, even though McLaren leads by a considerable margin. He remains optimistic that Ferrari will have opportunities to secure a win, especially at upcoming tracks like Baku. Vasseur’s main objective is for Ferrari to secure second place in the championship before aiming for race victories.
