At Ferrari, after a race to forget in Barcelona too with Sainz's fifth place and Leclerc's eleventh, we continue to work to try to find the right path to return to fighting at least for second place in the constructors' championship.
Now comes Canada
Il Canada it will be, from this point of view, a very important stage for the Maranello stable who will try to understand even better how significant they can really be considered upgrades fitted to the SF-23 in that of Montmelò. In Spain, the Red once again confirmed itself as a car that in qualifying – with Sainz having gained second position – manages to have his say, unlike the race where she has been on many occasions the fourth force on the track.
Sainz: “We want to improve the relationship with the medium-low speed corners”
However, Ferrari's objective with these updates is very clear: try to improve the ratio in medium-low speed corners. Carlos admits it Sainz that he noticed an important step forward made by the team in this direction"The new update package was mainly supposed to improve the relationship with medium-low speed corners and I believe that we have taken a step forward in that direction. A step forward isn't achieved with a big update, but by opening a different window within the machine's range. That's always been our goal with these updates, not to suddenly go half a second faster. Because of this I think we are working well".
“The updates are working”
As for where the car still needs to improve, Sainz has no doubts" We want to make the car more drivable, easier to put together on the lap and hopefully that can be the case. Our high-speed performance has not been good since the start of the season. From Australia we have struggled with balancing and bouncing and these phenomena could still happen at high speeds. We just need to focus on this and see what we can improve, also because low speed is not a problem for us."
