The step forward that the Ferrari team has taken since the start of the season has been quite remarkable. They have gone from suffering in all the races to fighting for podiums. The closest example is the Austrian GP, where Ferrari proved to be the second dominant force in the race.
Both Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc seem to have settled into the car and the improvements they made at the Spanish GP have paid off. In addition, the dragging problems with the tires have also been solved.
For all this, in some statements collected by ‘RacingNews365’, Charles Leclerc has ensured that they are going to improve the performance they showed at the Red Bull Ring.
“We couldn’t really show it at any other track since Barcelona, but in Austria the feeling was good and the pace was a bit better than what we had. However, we must not get carried away,” comments the Monegasque.
“Red Bull is still a long way ahead and I think this track this weekend will expose our weaknesses a bit more. So we could fight a bit more than we’ve seen in Austria,” added Leclerc.
Added to all this is Pirelli bringing a new tire specification to Silverstone that seems to be a bit tougher. Something that, ‘a priori’, seems to benefit teams like Aston Martin and Ferrari.
This is because Ferrari’s main problem has been tire degradation. However, Leclerc is cautious about this: “During free practice it will be very important to evaluate it to see how much difference there is in terms of degradation.”
