Ferrari has made a tough start to the 2023 F1 season and is yet to finish on the podium, so why is Fred Vasseur still upbeat about the team's chances this year? We explain:
Vasseur explains: “We took a direction a bit different in terms of development for Australia. It paid off. The feeling was strange after because we were very frustrated. Quali, we are not far away to do a good job and for different reasons we didn't deliver. In the race, the pace was OK for me. We were a bit unlucky on the safety car red flag and we had to do an extra pitstop. But after this, [Sainz] was able to come back, overtake a couple of cars to push on the tyres.
When it comes to looking to the future, Vasseur promises Ferrari fans won’t have to wait long. While there will be no ‘B-spec’ - a decision driven by the cost cap, aerodynamic restrictions and a belief there is plenty more to come from the current guise - a rapid stream of more minor updates are in the pipeline.
Instead, fresh parts will arrive for each of the Miami, Imola and Barcelona rounds. And these are being delivered ahead of time as Ferrari insists it has been quick to react to its tepid start. It has tweaked the development path to place an emphasis on resolving car balance and the update originally penned for Spain will now arrive in time for the first visit to Italy, for example.
“It means that as long as we are still able to develop the car to get points, and the aero to get a better balance to get a better stability, it makes sense to push in this direction."
