Why there's fresh hope in Ferrari's latest title failure
Sebastian Vettel's controlled victory in the Brazilian GP means Ferrari will have a high to remember from the 2017 run-in. But that will be tinged with anger at not making the most of how quick it has been this year…
Those who work at Ferrari will look back on the 2017 Formula 1 World Championship with enormous frustration. Vettel could, and arguably should, have won the drivers' title. Ferrari could and should have pushed Mercedes closer for the constructors' championship.
But they didn't. They fell short. Again.
Ferrari president Sergio Marchionne has been highly critical of his team. He described its form as "embarrassing", lambasted its quality control department and blamed his drivers for "errors" and "misjudgements". He also accepted some of the responsibility.
