Mattia Binotto has admitted that Ferrari's goal for the season is "not to win the championship", despite a strong start to the year.
The Italian team adapted quickest to new car regulations for this season, winning the first race of the year with Charles Leclerc closely followed by Carlos Sainz in second. Leclerc went on to win the third race after finishing second in Saudi Arabia, cementing his and his team's title credentials.
But since then it is Red Bull who have stolen the initiative, overcoming their early-season reliability issues to win the last four races to take the lead in both championships. Max Verstappen leads Leclerc by nine points in the drivers' table, while in the constructors' standings the gap has widened to 36.
