Ferrari’s new rear suspension is unlikely to debut at Silverstone, meaning fans will have to wait a few more races.
After struggles in the early races of the season, Ferrari decided to develop a new rear suspension aimed at stabilizing a platform that has caused significant problems for its drivers in the first half of the championship.
More Time Needed for the New Package
According to recent reports, the new suspension version will not be ready for several more races. This was revealed by Carlo Vanzini in one of his latest YouTube videos. “Among the so-called ‘four sisters’ we thought would compete at the start, Ferrari is the only team yet to win. It is also the only team that hasn’t brought updates because it still needs to understand how this platform works and whether it has potential. However, the potential seems lacking, as Maranello’s engineers have decided to introduce a new rear suspension. This upgrade will also include a new floor,” stated the Sky Sport commentator.
“The new suspension is not expected before Belgium. It was supposed to arrive at Silverstone, but I don’t think that will happen. In Austria, a new floor will debut to work alongside the full package. It’s hard to predict what impact this upgrade will have — it could bring a big step forward or make little difference. Ferrari must focus on delivering qualifying performances like Monaco and then managing the race well, as recently demonstrated,” added Carlo Vanzini ahead of the Austrian Grand Prix, which is scheduled to take place at the 4.318-kilometre Red Bull Ring in Spielberg next Sunday.
