Ferrari cannot repeat F1 mistake of "too high" expectations for 2024 – Vasseur
After putting pressure on Red Bull in 2022, Ferrari had optimism for the 2023 season. However, their car fell short during testing in Bahrain and struggled on race pace, especially on hot, high-downforce tracks. Team principal Vasseur acknowledges that the team had high expectations at the beginning of the season, but he highlights the team’s ability to stabilize performance and prevent Red Bull from dominating all races. Ferrari is banking on an all-new car design for 2024 to address their weaknesses. Vasseur cautions against being overly optimistic and emphasizes the importance of focusing on their own progress rather than comparing themselves to others.
