Vasseur: 2024 Ferrari F1 car will be "95%" new
In the 2023 constructors’ standings, Ferrari dropped to third place but had a strong end to the season with four podium finishes in the last five rounds. However, drivers Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc struggled with the car’s handling and tire degradation, resulting in inconsistent performance from race to race. Ferrari plans to revise almost all parts of the car for the 2024 season, with a major unveiling scheduled for February 13. Team Principal Frederic Vasseur stated that they are looking for small performance gains, but emphasized the need for a significant step forward. Sainz has already noticed differences in the behavior of the 2024 car during simulator runs, and Vasseur believes Ferrari should focus on their own improvements and wait to assess their performance during pre-season testing in Bahrain.
