Fred Vasseur pinpoints Ferrari’s goal for 2024 amid strong start to F1 season. Ferrari team boss Fred Vasseur reflects on team's goal for 2024 F1 season.

Ferrari’s Objective
Aware of the formidable strength of the duo formed by Max Verstappen and Red Bull, Scuderia Ferrari started the 2024 Formula 1 season with a low profile and without big expectations, with the minimum goal of improving as compared to the previous Formula 1 championship. Carlos Sainz’s success at the 5.278-kilometre Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne has now revitalized fans’ hopes of contending for the title, and in this sense, the upcoming races will be crucial in assessing the possible course of the championship.

“Can Ferrari be competitive for the constructors’ championship?” was the question posted by Italian journalist Marco Franzelli of TG1 the team principal Frederic Vasseur in yesterday’s 8 PM edition. “Yes, that’s the goal,” replied the French manager, who then adding: “Also to compete for the drivers’ championship. Maybe this year it’s a bit early, but we’ll see.” – he added.

A promise for Carlos Sainz amid final Ferrari season
Fred Vasseur, in the interview for the flagship television newscast produced by Rai 1,, reflected on Carlos Sainz’s victory in the Australian Grand Prix, revealing a behind-the-scenes moment from the winter: “I have great respect for Carlos as a man and as a driver. When I told him about the choice of signing Lewis Hamilton, we promised each other that we would push until the last corner of the last Grand Prix.” Finally, the team principal outlined the path to follow: “Not every weekend will be like Melbourne, but what I ask from the team is not to make mistakes, to improve step by step, and to maintain the same determination,” before a final joke about the Easter egg gift for Ferrari fans: “Trophies. But we need a pretty big egg!”
