Ferrari’s talked up how much of an overhaul it’s made for 2024. But Gary Anderson has some concerns about a lack of major changes in very crucial areas of the SF-24
Could this finally be Ferrari’s year to win championships again in Formula 1, considering they have been second-best to Red Bull since the ground-effect regulations were implemented, with Red Bull dominating the past two seasons due to their superior understanding of car aerodynamics and having Max Verstappen as a major weapon? Despite a few mistakes from Ferrari, they have managed to hold their ground, but winning means beating the competition, something they have struggled to do so far. Signing Lewis Hamilton for 2025 signals a shift in team dynamics, indicating a lack of full faith in their current drivers, with Charles Leclerc losing his golden boy status and Carlos Sainz possibly on his way out. The 2023 season ended on a high note for Ferrari, yet they still lack the winning potential. While some areas of the car have been optimized, critical components like the front wing and nose design show room for improvement, impacting overall aerodynamics. Ferrari’s front suspension design remains unchanged from last year, with a well-integrated setup that minimizes aerodynamic blockages but ultimately lacks groundbreaking innovation.
