Ferrari believes the introduction of “new technology” on Red Bull’s brake calipers contributed to the mass weight reduction that inspired
Red Bull dominated the 2022 Formula 1 season, winning 10 out of the last 11 races and comfortably securing both championships. Their success was largely due to their RB19 car, which was a carryover from the previous year with improvements in weight reduction. Ferrari and Carlos Sainz prevented Red Bull from achieving a clean sweep, but they were unable to consistently challenge the reigning champions. Ferrari’s Technical Director, Enrico Cardile, believes that Red Bull gained an advantage in the brake calipers area by introducing new technology. Despite Ferrari’s efforts, their SF-23 car was unpredictable and struggled to perform consistently in different wind conditions. Red Bull’s car proved formidable on all types of tracks, and Ferrari must strive to match that level of consistency. Ultimately, Ferrari finished third in the championship, behind Red Bull and Mercedes.
