We recently quoted Red Bull Racing driver Mark Webber, who has no doubt that Max Verstappen will win the title in 2022. In turn, the head of Formula 1, Stefano Domenicali, is confident that the fate of the title has not yet been decided and that the situation in the championship could change at any time.
Stefano Domenicali: “If you remember, after three races, when Ferrari’s advantage was about 40 points, everyone said the game was over for Max Verstappen. Now the situation is reversed – Max is already in the lead with a 46 point lead. My point is that we should be careful with our assumptions. The championship is very long and throughout its duration the contenders will be haunted by ups and downs.
It is too early to say that the battle for the title is over. I say this not because I hope so, but because I am sure. Only a third of the season behind, ahead of many races, and I’m sure the battle for the title will continue.
Charles Leclerc is in top form and Ferrari is very close to Red Bull in terms of speed. I also see signs that they are adding something to Mercedes, so we are in for a tough fight. It all depends on how the teams adapt the cars to different tracks and how the teams will refine the cars given the budget constraints. That is the importance of the current situation.”
