"Clearly, there is no need to make big changes at this point. Thanks to the pause in testing that will last until the race in Turkey, this advantage should last two races. This is why we think we could have some influence on the destination of the title."

Schumacher continued to comment on team morale and whether or not winning the title is realistic at this point:

"The break to the next race is a short one and the stakes are so high that I preferred getting some immediate rest so that I can go into Budapest recharged. As regards to the team's morale, I have to say that a one-two at Hockenheim has helped us very much. Ferrari dominated as it did on its best days from the past. It is a result that, obviously, impressed the fans. Above all, it is a win that reopens a championship race that everyone had already given up as lost.

The drivers' title is up for grabs. The great thing is that I now have the mathematical chance to win it without having to depend on the actions of anyone else. There are six races left and we will be going for it."
