Ferrari duo hope for no more 'bad days'
The Prancing Horse of Scuderia Ferrari
Jul.18 (GMM) Ferrari's two race drivers said they are not dwelling on mistakes described as "stupid" by the Italian marque's president Luca di Montezemolo after the recent British grand prix.
"Montezemolo was disappointed? He was not the only one," world champion Kimi Raikkonen was at Hockenheim quoted as saying by La Gazzetta dello Sport.
A bad call on the Ferrari pitwall at Silverstone two Sundays ago marred the Finn's chase of winner Lewis Hamilton, while teammate Felipe Massa finished dead last following at least five spins.
"It's just part of racing," Raikkonen added. "We have made some mistakes but nothing is wrong and the championship is still open."
Brazilian Massa, meanwhile, filed away his disastrous British race two weeks ago as a "bad day".
"That is something you can't explain but that is part of sport, anybody can have a bad day just as you have a good day.
"That's what happened to me -- I just hope it does not happen again," he added.
