– Definitely, very good and deserved. We knew that we competitive machine. We knew that going faster in the race than in the qualifications. So we decided to start on the softer type of rubber, which was perhaps not as good at a distance, but helped us to start. Felipe well went into the race. Kimi too. We were the first and second. We had attack most of the race, but everything went well. This happens often when finishiruesh take, what happened this time.

– Until the end of the championship remaining five races. How do you assess the chances of “Ferrari”?

– I'm sure they're still there. It will be hard, but hard times. As I always I say, we will try to give everything to the maximum, and I believe that we can handle.

– Both pilots “Ferrari” and “McLaren” fighting for the title. In anticipation of the remaining races do not think you need to return to racing in the hierarchy Scuderia duo, if any of the pilots will be slightly ahead? There are plans for?

– None. It would be unacceptable for such non-pilots, as Felipe and Kimi. After 12 stages, they are separated by just a point. In most of the problems they have faced, we are guilty. They too were mistaken, that's fine. All we are people, and we have no plans to use any sort was a strategy concerning the composition of the pilots.

– He has five wins already Masses for the “Ferrari”. How do you rate it progress?

– Very good. Both our pilot work fine. The team reigns Harmony, the drivers want to win and their chances of success are. Kimi just great.

– This is why it is important to do it. But changing the rules is very difficult. We knew beforehand that the race would be difficult, and to be ahead is always better. The competition is incredible, everything should work well to achieve success. But while I do not know what we can do now in order to improve the situation.

– Last year, when the team departed Michael Schumacher and Ross Brawn, you said that they themselves must remain to maintain continuity in the team. Ross will return if in the next year and what are your future plans?

– I'm not ready to retire. I'm okay with motivation, I awe come to every race. Just happy when we win, and also upset when we are out of luck. I hope I can be in the “Ferrari” a few years. Now about Russia. We discussed one another. While there is no agreement. We just discussing its conditions and ours. Maybe we have a common solution, but may be, and no. But we will remain friends forever and we respect each other. He done a lot for us and the team also gave him a lot. Our partnership has been beneficial to both parties.
