Ferrari chasing top speed The Austrian GP was rather merciless towards Ferrari. The power deficit compared to the rivals was evident to the point that the rivals themselves declared themselves dismayed at the difference in performance between the Maranello power unit and those of Mercedes and Red Bull. At the Red Bull Ring Ferrari introduced the first innovations in the engine using the ‘ADUO-1’, the results were not particularly encouraging, but it should not be forgotten that in Austria the altitude may have amplified some factors such as the fact that the SF-26 has a smaller turbo than its rivals. Fernando Alonso joked about the amount of updates brought by rival teams and Toto Wolff specifically ‘did the math’ at Ferrari. According to what was anticipated by the AutoRacer.it newspaper, however, Ferrari has not finished churning out innovations in Maranello. In fact, an updated Macarena wing and a low-drag diffuser are on the way for the British GP at Silverstone. The exhaust system could also be revised. Ferrari seeks top speed on a track where the fast corners should still enhance the chassis quality of the SF-26.
