Intro:
Ferrari technical director James Allison said the team must 'bully their way up the grid' on Wednesday. Ferrari's Fernando Alonso finished sixth in Canada last time out and the Spaniard is currently fourth in the overall standings. The Austrian Grand Prix begins on Sunday at the Red Bull Ring as Formula 1 descends on the Styrian mountain region for the first time in over a decade.
Script:
SOUNDBITE: (English) James Allison, Ferrari technical director (on the Austrian Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring, Spielberg/overlaid with various shots of car and Ferrari engineers):
"Every season in Formula One, once it kicks off, is dominated by the efforts back at the factory to try to improve the package that you have, to try and, if you're in front to stay in front, if you're not in front to bully your way up the grid. We're not in front currently and we are doing our level best to cross every aspect of the car: mechanically, aerodynamically.... every single component, electronically, set-up wise -- everything we can do to try to improve it is being done. We have brought several upgrades to the track this year and in the last few races more than normal, and that has actually improved our position marginally, and we just to keep fighting that same fight. We have upgrades planned race-by-race and, if we do a good job with all of those it will start to tell, we will start to see the Ferrari run more consistently relative to the opposition and start to look like something we can be more proud of, but it's a fight, it's not an easy fight and it's a fight that never ends."
