Calado: Ferrari "scratching its head" over Bahrain WEC pace
The AF Corse team, winners of the Le Mans 24 Hours, have admitted that their Ferrari 499P Le Mans Hypercar is lacking pace in all areas during the practice sessions for the Bahrain 8 Hours. The drivers, James Calado and Antonio Giovinazzi, expressed their disappointment with the car’s performance, noting that they are two to three seconds off the pace. The technical director, Ferdinando Cannizzo, acknowledged the challenge they face in improving the car’s performance and competing with the Toyotas, who are currently leading the field. The team suspects that poor traction and straight-line speed are the main factors leading to their struggles, and the Balance of Performance regulations may also be affecting their performance. Nonetheless, they remain determined to continue fighting and improving.
