For Frederic Vasseur there are no doubts: Ferrari's goal for the 2024 season must be the constructors' championship. The team principal of red he speaks thus in the interview given to TG1 following the victory at the Australian GP. “The constructors' championship? Yes. That's the goal”. For Vasseur, although the season has started in a positive way for Ferrari, there is no need to rush too much. The victory in Melbourne certainly gave the right push to continue on this path, but we absolutely need to preach calm. “Then – he explains – we also want to fight for the drivers' championship, but we'll see about that: it's still a little early to understand if we could."
Vasseur: “The constructors' championship is the objective of 2024, but calm down”
Il success in Australia it arrived thanks to a super performance from Carlos Sainz. The Spaniard, fresh from the operation appendicitis during the Saudi Arabian GP, he achieved a victory that is worth a lot for the team and, above all, for him who will say goodbye to the Maranello team at the end of the season. “I have great respect for Carlos as a man and as a driver,” said Vasseur, analyzing the Spaniard's performance last Sunday. “When I told him about Hamilton we promised ourselves that we would push until the last corner and as you can see it has already been done, but I had few doubts.”
“What do you want in an Easter egg? Lots of trophies"
A grown Ferrari that everyone likes, especially the drivers. Different sensations, for one SF-24 which compared to that of 2023 is "easier to drive: wears the tires less and allows us to attack. We have taken a step forward. However, it is not done yet, we are not there yet. The only thing I ask the team is to not make mistakes and to improve from time to time. The task is to understand the car well and extract the maximum that we still have to do." And so, therefore, Vasseur is ready to enjoy Easter with an egg that will hopefully be: “full of trophies”, concluded the Red team principal.
