Ferrari is behind Red Bull, Mercedes and Aston Martin. He is fourth in the constructors’ world championship. Only one podium in seven races, by Charles Leclerc. Carlos Sainz He still doesn’t know what it’s like to get on the drawer. In the Spanish Grand Prix he came close, but was overtaken by Lewis Hamilton, George Russell and Czech Perez.
Jock Clear, of Ferrari, has given details of how Maranello is working on the new design of the SF23: “When the teams present their car, everyone is convinced of their solutions, so no one says they were not…”.
“We were all convinced of what we had, but then We all need to learn from what others do.and also what we do”, he expressed in statements collected by ‘Motorsport’.
“It’s not one of those organic developments, I’m sure we’ve been looking at it since day one of testing, when you look at the different cars and see the solutions for each one. That’s where you start to think maybe there are other ways that could have solved that problem. As soon as Red Bull’s dominance became apparent, you have to look very, very closely at what they’re doing, so in a normal process I would say probably two months ago we chose that path“, has explained.
Ferrari continues to work, but does not find the performance. The Barcelona race was a nightmare for Sainz, who saw how his rivals kept passing him.
“I was stepping on eggs…”, said the Spanish pilot frustrated. That is the reality of the Italian team at the moment. And it doesn’t look like it’s going to change anytime soon. At least at the Canadian Grand Prix.
