Charles Leclerc’s take on SF-24′ ‘porpoising’ issue

While the Ferrari duo is in good spirits ahead of the track running in Silverstone, the events since Moncao, really haven’t turned out in their favor. Moreover, as things stand, Mercedes has tipped the SF-24 and currently has the third fastest car on the grid.

The Ferrari drivers have been dealing with the proposing issue in recent races, and yesterday, Leclerc took the time to dwell on the same.

I think porpoising is still a topic of discussion, not specifically with this upgrade. So it's something that can be resolved in the short term and we already have some ideas on the direction we want to take it.
Charles Leclerc said in an interview at the British GP

The 2024 F1 season is 11 rounds down and has reached the half way mark with the ongoing race weekend. The Maranello-based team despite its woes, is in second place in the constructors stadings and is only 64 points behind the mighty Red Bull. Keeping in view everything that has been discussed, the British GP holds tremendous significance for Leclerc and Co.
