“Ferrari has more power to unlock,” Italian giants scheduled to respond to Red Bull and Mercedes’ updates

Ferrari

Ferrari, with its F1-75, has made a spectacular comeback in the 2022 season and is looking stronger than ever. The team has bagged 78 out of the 88 possible points in the first two races of the season and is planning to run away with the titles this year.

However, as well all know that as the season progresses, developments take place. Ferrari, which unarguably has the best, and the complete car on the grid, will be keeping an eye out for its competitors. To counter Red Bull and Mercedes upgrades in the coming months, Ferrari might unlock more of its engine for more power, reports formu1a.uno. 

The source also reports that the team has already achieved its 2021 power and will increase the power after finishing the PU reliability program. They quote, “We are more interested in finishing the reliability data collection program, at least until race 5 [Miami],” meaning the change in power and thus pace could be visible from the sixth race of the season, i.e., the Spanish GP.

Ferrari F1-75 appears to be an all-around car. The car is unarguably the fastest on the corners and second fastest on the straights. It is believed that they’ve compromised some of the pace to limit the porpoising, which they’re dealing with due to the car being lighter than Red Bull.

Even Red Bull’s advisor Helmut Marko believes that the F1-75 is the most complete. He said, “Ferrari has the most complete car. She is quick right away once she hits the track, in all conditions, with all types of tires and at all temperatures.”

Both Ferrari and Red Bull will be going head to head at the Australian GP. With 4 DRS zones on the track and a new layout, the race is expected to be faster than its previous editions, which could mean a closer battle for the fastest teams on the grid.
