Ferrari under pressure - boss

ROME, Italy - Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo expects more wins from the team through the rest of the season.

Fernando Alonso has picked up more points than any other driver over the last four races, winning one and securing a podium finish in the other three.

The Ferrari chief now expects more of the same in the remaining eight races. He said: "I can see the right spirit in the team after a very difficult start to the season."

TITLE CHASE

"(Team principal Stefano) Domenicali and his crew seem very determined, concentrating fully on their tasks for the second part of the year which I am sure will feature Ferrari as a key player. I expect we will pick up wins to add to the important and historically very significant victory achieved at Silverstone."

Alonso is fourth in the drivers' standings but 89 points behind runaway leader and defending World champion Sebastian Vettel.

Felipe Massa, however, is well out of the running in sixth with less than half his team mate's points.
