Arrivabene expects to beat Mercedes in 2016

In 2015 Ferrari have emerged as the best of the rest behind Mercedes, with team 'new boy' Sebastian Vettel scoring three wins thus far which has led team boss Maurizio Arrivabene to dream big ahead of the 2016 season.

When asked by La Gazzetta dello Sport what expectations he has for next season, Arrivabene declared, "My honest expectation is not just to be closer, but to be in front of them."

Ferrari last won the F1 constructors' world title in 2008 with Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa in the team, and a year earlier won their last F1 drivers' world championship title.

Since the advent of Formula 1 in 1950, Ferrari have won 16 constructors' titles and 15 drivers' titles.
