Wolff: “Ferrari dangerous in the heat, we must take advantage of Antonelli’s pace”

Ferrari in the Mercedes ‘sandwich’ Qualifying for the Austrian GP ended with a ‘mixed’ starting grid that sees George Russell ahead of Charles Leclerc with Lewis Hamilton and Andrea Kimi Antonelli in the second row. Max Verstappen starts from third in front of the McLarens and on a track like the Red Bull Ring the first lap promises to be very interesting. Toto Wolff doesn’t expect a clear supremacy from the Mercedes, but he knows he can count on a truly remarkable race pace from Andrea Kimi Antonelli, who shouldn’t have too much enthusiasm at the start. “The Ferraris are very dangerous in the heat, obviously they will be in play for the victory – said Toto Wolff to F1 TV – we have to take advantage of Antonelli’s pace and try to get him back to the front”.
