Ferrari aims for uncomplicated weekend: 'As well prepared as possible'
F1 News
Were it not for the disappointing performance on Saturday, Ferrari might have been on the podium after the Canadian Grand Prix. The updates introduced by the Italian racing stable so far seem to be working. Team boss Frederic Vasseur is confident that Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz will also perform well in the Austrian GP.
"After Canada, we now return to complete the European leg of the season, taking in some of the classic venues on the calendar, starting with back-to-back races in Austria and England," Vasseur began in a Ferrari press release.
Ferrari hopes for an 'uncomplicated weekend'
Spielberg will host the second sprint weekend of the 2023 Formula 1 season, meaning F1 drivers will only get one hour of free practice before starting qualifying. "We have therefore spent plenty of time working hard in the factory and simulator to be as well prepared as possible," the 55-year-old Frenchman continued.
"Our main focus has been on ensuring that our drivers can get the most out of the SF-23 package as they were able to do in the race in Montreal. We’re looking to have a straightforward weekend all the way through from Friday to Sunday, and if we manage it, then I’m sure we can bring home a good result," Vasseur said.
