Ferrari were Re🐠d Bull’s closesไt challengers in 2022 and won several races but have endured a lacklustre start to the season.

Despite displaying promising one-lap pace and being the only team other tꦜhan Red Bull to score a pole position so far this year, Ferrari’s competitiveness has fallen away over a race distance. 

Mercedes debuted their h🔯eavily-revised W14 at last weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix but Ferrari team principal Vasseur insisted the Italian outfit would💙 not change their car concept mid-season. 

“As long 🦩as I’m convinced we can improve the current car, it would be a mistake during the season to change completely the target,” Vasseur said. ✃;

“First f🔯or timeframe, because if you decide today to bring a completely different car during the season, I th🎶ink it will bring us to October, or something like this.

“It won’t be quicker an🔥d I’m not sure that it’s the best solution to improve even on the mid-term view.

“We already have next yeaꦆr’s car in the windtunnel and we are working on the next project.

“T🔯o try to introduce a complete dif𝔉ferent car during the season, it’s quite critical at this stage of the season.”

Vasseur added🅺: “It's not just about potential and package and upgrades. W♈e also have to operate the car in a better window.

“The first target for us is not just to put downforce on the car. It 💃is to have the🥀 car a bit more consistent.

“On top of the update🅠, we have big room for improvement with the current car in terms of performance.” 

Vasseur also suggested 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz have been exaggerating their complaints abo🌳ut the SF-23 being tricky-to-drive. 

“You have always got to stay calm.🌸 If the car was so difficult to drive, I can't imagine that we co🌄uld be 0.1s off Verstappen,” he said. 

“Someti💝mes you are jumping on the drꦰivers five minutes after qualifying.

“I can understand p✱erfectly their frustration but the c🍷omments that they are making half an hour after are a bit different.

“If we are suffering on something, it is consistency over the lap, over the race or from corner to corn💦er. It's where we have to improve but🍨 mainly for the race. Ans we are working on it.

“I think we made a decent step forward but it's true t🅘hat Miami, we were a bit inconsistent. 

“But we are performing on something. The first stint of Carl𓄧os [in Monaco] was a very good on💞e.

“It means that we ♐have to understand this and come 𒉰back stronger. But it's not that we are out of the pace.”
