And the team principal analyzed the reasons why.

It is precisely this aspect, which Ferrari has suffered for months, è been central in the work that the team in Maranello carried out before the resumption of the Formula 1 championship. "We focused on some steps of work and development ch specifically related to the tuning. The goal was to allow Leclerc and Sainz to extend the life of the tires longer. And this kind of work is now paying off", added Vasseur.
