The Ferrari Formula 1 team had a disastrous three-day performance at the 2024 Canadian Grand Prix. They faced immense difficulties against their competitors, including McLaren, Red Bull, and even the inconsistent Mercedes team. Unfortunately, Ferrari had a double Did Not Finish (DNF) in the main 70-lap race. However, despite this setback, the team remains undeterred 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, the team boss remains confident and committed to resolving the issues with their SF-24 as soon as possible. Expressing his faith in the team’s future, Vasseur also highlighted the engine problem that affected the driver during the race, leading to his retirement.
The engine problem had a significant impact on Leclerc’s performance and hindered his ability to extract the full potential of the SF-24. With nine races completed in the current season, Ferrari is slightly behind the dominant Red Bull Formula 1 team in the standings. Accumulating 252 points so far, Leclerc and his teammates cannot afford to have another below-expectations weekend at the upcoming Spanish Grand Prix.
