Ferrari is packing big for the Italian Grand Prix. The Scuderia has brought a major update, that might be dubbed a ‘Monza special’
Following the Dutch Grand Prix, Frederic Vasseur and Charles Leclerc revealed that Ferrari plans to introduce an upgrade package at Monza. Despite a decline in performance, Ferrari’s SF-24 encountered issues after the Spanish GP upgrade, allowing McLaren, Red Bull, and Mercedes to establish a lead. However, signs of progress emerged as Leclerc secured third place at Zandvoort, and Sainz climbed from 11th to fifth. The new upgrades for Monza appear to be exceptional, including a specialized rear wing for high-speed circuits, indicating a notable strategic shift for Ferrari. The team faces challenges due to budget constraints and limited testing opportunities, but aims to enhance performance and narrow the gap with frontrunners with these focused improvements.Experts speculate that the Monza upgrades, particularly the rear wing, may be exclusive to this track to optimize Ferrari’s competitiveness, alongside enhancements to the floor and rear beam wing for Leclerc and Sainz. The ultimate goal is to elevate Ferrari’s standing and performance in pursuit of success at Monza and throughout the season.
