11 updates for Ferrari in Miami Frederic Vasseur had anticipated it, Ferrari was determined to bring “a package and a half” of updates for the Miami race and so it was. The two SF-26s of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton have in fact mounted 11 updates, which concerned the bottom, diffuser, wings and suspensions.
However, the results on the track did not live up to the hopes of the Ferrari fans and the Reds still chased at a distance not only Antonelli’s Mercedes, but also Norris’ McLaren. Furthermore, Max Verstappen appears to have joined the group of leading cars in his Red Bull. In short, not a great prospect, especially since Maranello will not be able to bring the new engine before the Spa race in mid-July. Hinchcliffe perplexed by Ferrari tactics Speaking on the F1 Nation podcast, former IndyCar star James Hinchcliffe expressed his surprise at such a large package of developments: “The number 1 rule of engineering is to make one change at a time, so you can understand and isolate what is actually an improvement and what is worse.” The Canadian continued: “It involves assembling 11 or 12 different components and this makes the work of both the engineers and the drivers really difficult. Nothing works in isolation on a Formula 1 car, everything works together. Introducing such a long list of updates is complex.” Click here to add Formula Passion as your favorite source on Google Discover: you will find our content more easily!
