In a recent news, Ferrari team director, Frederic Vasseur, expressed caution regarding the team’s chances of winning the 2024 Formula 1 title. Vasseur believes that Red Bull, despite their struggles in Monaco, will come back stronger in the upcoming races. While Red Bull started the season with four wins and three one-two finishes, McLaren and Ferrari have closed the gap by securing wins in Miami and Monaco, respectively. With Max Verstappen finishing sixth in Monaco, the championship gap has narrowed to 24 points. Verstappen acknowledged that Red Bull’s weakness in absorbing bumps or potholes has been exposed now that the competition has caught up. However, Vasseur denies the idea that Red Bull has cemented their dominance this season. He emphasizes that there are still 17 races to go and anything can happen. Vasseur believes that Red Bull and Max Verstappen have never considered themselves champions and that complacency is detrimental to success. Vasseur also recognizes McLaren as a contender in the championship battle, as they have secured wins and podiums in recent races. He states that his focus is on Ferrari’s performance and improvement, rather than fixating on any specific competitor. Vasseur believes that the competition will remain fierce until the end of the season.
