Ross Brawn has described Silverstone as ‘damage limitation’ for Ferrari, after Michael Schumacher finished second to championship leader Fernando Alonso on Sunday.
”But once again we move two points in the wrong direction,” the technical director said, ”which is disappointing.”
With its mighty straight-line speed, however, the Maranello based team is looking forward to the next two races, whose long stretches of road should give Schumacher a chance to set the pace.
Brawn told ‘Premiere’ TV in Germany: ”Our car should run well (in the North American races).”
Renault boss Flavio Briatore, meanwhile, enthused about Fernando Alonso’s ever-expanding lead in the drivers’ chase.
And the Italian added: ”Also in the constructors’ championship we lie far out in front. I am not surprised that the others could not match us.”
