Ferrari F1 boss Fred Vasseur has revealed that the FIA are set to change the F1 speed limit at this weekend’s Singapore Grand Prix.
Ferrari F1 boss Fred Vasseur announced that the FIA will adjust the F1 speed limit at the upcoming Singapore Grand Prix, with hopes for a better outcome for drivers Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc after a challenging race in Baku.
During the previous race, team orders were implemented for Leclerc to allow Hamilton to pass him, but the strategy did not yield the desired results, resulting in minimal points for Ferrari.
Vasseur emphasized that the Singapore Grand Prix will be a demanding test of focus and flexibility due to the track layout, night-time conditions, and potential Safety Car appearances.
Additionally, the pit lane speed limit is expected to be increased, requiring all drivers, including Hamilton and Leclerc, to obey the rules to avoid penalties.
Following a disappointing performance in Azerbaijan, Ferrari has dropped to third place in the constructors’ standings, with Mercedes now in second.
