It is difficult to analyze and comment on a Ferrari like that of Singapore. Sergio Perez triumphs which closes before two Redheads of Maranello. A non-winning Ferrari, yet again but that nonetheless, even a Singapore, sends the message to be strong… very strong.
Ferrari is there. The pilots too
Singapore could be the truth contest for the Ferrari and, in one respect, it was. Leclerc snatched second place after a bad start. The only real mistake of the Monegasque. The race, on the other hand, didn't present any major complications, even if it wasn't easy. From the on board it was super visible how the Monegasque had taken his car to the limit, lap after lap. However, all this was not enough. The winner was Perez who, unlike Leclerc, was also perfect at the start.
The anomalous test, up to a certain point
Ferrari's showdown is given by Carlos Sainz. The Spaniard's performance wasn't fantastic, on the contrary. We can say that she didn't experience an easy weekend in terms of performance. In qualification has never been in the fight for pole and, despite everything, he brought home a fourth place, which became third in the race following an excellent start. Let's say that if Leclerc and Sainz had teamed up, a Red would have climbed to the top step of the podium.
Head to Japan
The lower pressure given by Federation on technical directive may have influenced for this reason, to really understand the power of Ferrari, we need to carefully observe what Suzuka can tell us. However, there isn't much time to analyze what happened yesterday in Singapore, as we get back on track on Sunday. It runs in Japan and the mentality of Ferrari must always be the same as in the last period: with a world championship now gone, it will be necessary to think about (and enjoy) race after race.
