Ferrari admits disappointment with performance in the Chinese Grand Prix.

Charles Leclerc reached a fourth place in the Chinese Grand Prix, marking a positive result for Ferrari in the 2024 Formula 1 season. The team’s performance showed significant improvements compared to last year’s car, with the iconic scarlet red vehicle proving to be the second best in the first four stages of the season. However, the race weekend of the Chinese GP was challenging for Ferrari, as their SF24 car struggled to keep up with the pace. Leclerc and his teammate Carlos Sainz expressed dissatisfaction with the car’s performance throughout the race. Leclerc shared his thoughts on the weekend as a whole, acknowledging that the team’s goal was not achieved and emphasizing the importance of the upcoming upgrades. He mentioned that there were no positive aspects of the weekend in Shanghai, but expressed optimism about the rumored upgrades expected to be introduced during the Italian GP in Imola next month. These upgrades are expected to significantly transform the SF24 and shape Ferrari’s season. Leclerc emphasized the need for the team to focus on getting the upgrades right to be more competitive with the dominant Red Bulls. The next Miami Grand Prix will be the next event on the F1 calendar.
