Fry keeping Ferrari grounded

Ferrari technical director, Pat Fry, believes there is still plenty of work to do on their car if they want to challenge this season.



Having looked sluggish in qualifying at both the Australian and Malaysian Grand Prix, it's surprising to see Ferrari's Fernando Alonso at the top of the World Drivers' Championship after two races.

The Spaniard had to battle with a weaker vehicle than his rivals Red Bull and McLaren to secure fifth spot in Melbourne and take the chequered flag at Sepang last month.Next up on the circuit is the Chinese Grand Prix this weekend and Alonso will be looking to extend his lead at the top of the championship from the likes of Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button and Sebastian Vettel.However, Fry is fully aware of his team's shortcomings this season and believes work will have to be done if they are to keep Alonso in the running for the title.He told the team's official website: "I certainly wasn't expecting to have one driver leading the championship."From quite early on in testing, we realised we had quite a few issues we needed to sort out."Everyone at the factory has been working hard at that, as we still have a long way to go. I think our dry qualifying performance is still around 8 tenths off the best while we want to be the best ourselves."
