Ferrari are “rushing upgrades through” at the Bahrain Grand Prix in a bid to turnaround their dire start to the 2025 F1 season.

It has been a hugely underwhelming and disappointing start to the campaign for Ferrari, who are fourth in the constructors’ champiꦫonship and 🐎76 points behind McLaren after just three races.

F1’s most famous team are set to introduce a ke♐y floor upgꦺrade in Bahrain this weekend in a bid to save their season.

Acco🐠rding to Sky Sports F1 commentator♈ David Croft, the upgrade package was originally scheduled for next month’s Miami Grand Prix and has been fast-tracked.

“On the face of it, F🐭errari have a car that works very well when it’s a third full of fuel,” Croft told Sky Sports News.

“They won they ꦬsprint with Lewis Hamilton and they won it convincingly, and he qualified very well on a track that he has qualified very well on in the past as well.

“Is there a fundamental design flaw? We’ll start to see evidence 🀅for or agai𒅌nst this week because Ferrari will be bringing upgrades to the track, rushing upgrades through, that maybe were designed for Miami.

“Butꦉ with that being a sprint weekend, it’s very difficult because of the limited practice time, to really dial in the set-up changes you need with these upgrades.

“So they’ve been rushed through and on the face of it, there is someth♉ing wrong with that car which stops Ferrari being able to run it low enough on full fuel so that they don’t excessively wear the planks and the skid blocks, w🌟hich is why Lewis Hamilton got disqualified from the Chinese Grand Prix.

“We’ll find out. I don’t know the answer to that and Ferrari are keeping tight-lipped, as you can understand, but the evidence will be on the track, on a race track which🎃 is different to Japan.

“It’s rear-limited rather than the front tyres but wh🤪ere Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc havౠe both enjoyed success in the past.”

What is wrong with Ferrari’s 2025 F1 car?

Ferrari made a significant concept change to their car over the winter, switching𒀰 to a pull-rod front suspension layout in a bid to find performance gains following their narrow constructors’ championship defeat to M✃cLaren in 2024.

There has been specul🐎ation in the paddock since the start of thꦇe season that Ferrari have a ride height issue with their 2025 challenger.

Ferrari have remained tight-lipped about the rumoured issue, but are widely believed to be unable to run their car at an optimu♏m ride height, costing them crucial downforce and lap time.

Both Hamilton and Leclerc hinted at issues with the SF25 and admitted 🍃they are pinning their hopes on planned upgrades.

"We found something on the car that was underperforming for the last three races so I am hoping when th෴at is fixed th෴at I will start getting better results,” Hamilton said in Japan.

“I'm losing just over a tenth a lap with this issue we have. I'm hoping by the next🍨 race it's fixed."
