The Scuderia is in need of a good result following two poor races since the Monaco Grand Prix.
Fred Vasseur has urged Ferrari to elevate their performance at the Austrian Grand Prix following recent disappointing outcomes. Despite a strong showing in Monaco with a one-three finish, Ferrari experienced setbacks in Canada with a double DNF, followed by a five-six result in Spain, where their car was the fourth fastest. The Red Bull Ring has historically been a favorable circuit for Ferrari, with Charles Leclerc even securing victory there in 2022 and finishing a close second to Max Verstappen last year. Vasseur emphasized the need for Ferrari to excel in Austria after introducing an upgrade package in Spain that did not yield maximum gains. With the competition tightening, Vasseur emphasized the significance of every detail at the rapid Red Bull Ring track, where even a small improvement can be decisive in performance. Additionally, the return of Sprint format in Austria adds to the importance of efficient team work, as there is limited practice time before the qualifying session. Vasseur stressed the necessity for everyone in the team, including the drivers, to be at their best to capitalize on any opportunities that arise during qualifying and the race.
