Ferrari boss Fred Vasseur was encouraged by the team’s performance at the Formula 1 Italian Grand Prix, despite missing out on the podium with both drivers.
Charles Leclerc finished in fourth place and Lewis Hamilton in sixth, unable to challenge McLaren or Red Bull.
Leclerc’s battle with Piastri overheated his rear tyres, dropping him back in the race until the situation stabilized.
Vasseur acknowledged that advising Leclerc to be more cautious at the start could have improved Ferrari’s podium chances.
Despite the disappointment, Ferrari sees a silver lining in the reduced gap to McLaren and remains determined to close the margin in upcoming races.
