![]() Russell suggested spectators simply turn their focus to the action behind the Red Bulls. ![]() They have tried to bring the teams closer but it never seems to work.” “But as a racing fan watching, I can understand because there’s not as much competition as perhaps they are used to with the NFL and NBA. “It’s not boring for me, I’m challenged every single day trying to get back to the front,” said Hamilton, a seven-time F1 champion. There was early promise Friday when George Russell and Lewis Hamilton paced the first practice for Mercedes, while reigning two-time champion Verstappen was fourth fastest and Perez 11th. We are working flat-out like everybody here is working flat out to try and recover the gap to the Red Bulls.” “It’s like in every sport, sometimes a team is just better than others and at the moment it’s the case with Red Bull. “I’ll do my best to not make it boring, but at the end it’s a sport,” Leclerc said. We also worked a lot on the dampers and the regulations.Charles Leclerc said Ferrari will do its best to put on a good show Sunday. We think that we reached the same level as with the other suspension and we think that we have a minimum in terms of space. Our choice was to wrap the push-rod up, to improve the rear and gain aerodynamics. “There are different options for the suspension regarding aerodynamics and the pull-rod is an advantage. “We were working with different set ups for the suspension, such as Red Bull’s pull-rod” explains Ferrari engineer Nikolas Tombazis. ![]() However sources suggest that one of the issues with this layout is that for the mechanics to adjust the dampers the now have to remove the floor of the car. This allowed the Ferrari aerodynamicists to develop much lower rear body work, one of the key benefits of a pull rod layout. It has chosen to retain conventional push rods but with substantial work has been carried out on damper placement, moving them from above the transmission further forward and lower in the car. The test was little more than a shake down but allowed for some interesting observations to be made.įerrari has opted not to use Red Bull style pull rod rear suspension on the F150 but it believes it has a solution that is even better. The first 2011 F1 car to be revealed the Ferrari F150 ran on track for the first time yesterday at Fiorano. ![]()
