🗣“We just lack race pace at the moment, and we need to make a car that is kinder on tyres but also more consistent with the aero.' Carlos Sainz says Ferrari’s problems in F1 this year are more “fundamental” than just a tyre degradation issue. ⬇️
Ferrari has struggled all season with its SF-23 showing decent pace in single-lap conditions in qualifying but then lacking consistency in the races.
“I think we keep talking a lot about tyres and degradation, but I think there's also a bit more of a fundamental problem with the race pace,” he said ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix. “That would allow us to stay a bit more on the limit of the car during the whole race. At the moment it just feels like we are having to back off a bit.”Ferrari introduced a major upgrade to its car at the Spanish Grand Prix, which included a new sidepod concept, but it still did not fully overcome its weaknesses.
