HAUG PREDICTS BMW BOOST
Posted 30th March, 2008 in BMW, Mercedes | Leave a comment
Mercedes-Benz motorsport boss, Norbert Haug believes that BMW’s F1 team could join the race for wins this season after claiming back-to-back second places in the opening two races.
“Both races were high class and interesting. The first grand prix saw a superiority of both McLaren cars, and the second race was dominated by both Ferraris,” he said.
“However, neither Ferrari nor we managed to achieve the 1-2 victory, which seemed a possibility in both races beyond the halfway mark. In Melbourne, Heikki was hampered by the third Safety Car period; for Ferrari in Malaysia, it was a driving mistake, by their own account.
“BMW performed well in both grands prix, finishing second twice and without doubt belongs to those teams that are capable of fighting for victories by their own means.”
