Brawn confident of Ferrari revival

…"My passion is obviously still Ferrari," said Brawn.

"When you hand over the reins, as I did, you are always a little anxious as to how people will progress. So I was delighted with the way they started the season, but
they have lost a slight edge and I think the team is having to
re-focus. But we’re only talking about fractions, and if the team keep its head, then they will pull it back.

"We saw in the US Grand Prix, Kimi’s (Raikkonen) race times were very good. But he made a bad start and was not so good in qualifying, and that’s what makes the difference between winning and losing.

"But there’s not a big gap between where they want to be and where they are at the moment."

Ross Brawn makes it sound very simple. And perhaps it is. It’s up to Kimi now, that when Ferrari are providing a fast and reliable car, he has to keep very focused and try not to make any mistakes. It’s a critical moment in the Finn’s 2007 season.

Symonds: Ferrari miss Brawn more than Schumi

"They’ve gone through a lot of changes definitely," said Symonds. "Perhaps two
people who were key in the team element, by which I mean motivation and
holding it all together – I’m talking about Michael Schumacher and Ross Brawn – have left.

"And I really suspect they’re feeling the loss of Ross more than Michael at the moment."

Ferrari’s Problem; The Loss of Ross. We must not forget that even the great 7 time WC Schumacher was helped many times by Brawn in the strategies for victories. F1 is a team sport, a lot depends on team work, and it’s reasonable to suggest that eventhough Kimi has taken a while to get to grips with the F2007, strategy plays a big role in the whole weekend, not just the race. And when Kimi was the faster driver at the USA grand prix, Ferrari should have maximised on that and put him ahead of Massa. At least Kimi could have put some pressure on Alonso. But now we’re reaching half point of the season, and Ferrari will back the driver higher up in the championship points table (currently Massa). So Ferrari wouldn’t have let Kimi past because it hurts Massa in the WDC. So I can assure you not everything Kimi does is in his hands only.
