The Ferrari Formula 1 team encountered a disastrous three-day performance at the 2024 Canadian Grand Prix. They faced immense struggles against their competitors, including McLaren, Red Bull, and even the inconsistent Mercedes team. Unfortunately, Ferrari experienced a double Did Not Finish (DNF) in the main 70-lap race. However, despite this setback, the team remains unfazed and considers the Canadian GP as an isolated poor performance.
Ferrari plays a significant role in the ongoing battle for the 2024 Constructors Championship. Despite the challenges faced in Montreal, team boss remains confident and committed to resolving the issues with their SF-24 as quickly as possible. While expressing his faith in the team’s future, Vasseur also shed light on the engine problem that affected driver during the race, leading to his retirement.
The engine issue had a significant impact on Leclerc’s performance and hindered his ability to extract the full potential of the SF-24. With nine rounds completed in the current season, Ferrari has slightly fallen behind the dominant Red Bull F1 team in the standings. Accumulating 252 points so far, Leclerc and his teammates cannot afford another subpar weekend at the upcoming Spanish Grand Prix.
