'I think we realise now that Red Bull have a clear advantage everywhere and that we need to start looking to our right and to our left.' But team boss Fred Vasseur has shut down rumours of a 'Plan B' car to save Ferrari's season. F1
While much has been made of Mercedes’ early-season difficulties in F1 2023, it could be argued that Ferrari are in fact the team which has suffered the most underwhelming start to the new campaign.
The Scuderia started out last season as the leading team, and while their title challenge ultimately fizzled out and Red Bull rose to the summit, Ferrari were confident that they could steady the ship and come back far stronger for the new campaign.
There had been rumours bubbling up then that Ferrari were looking to unleash a revised challenger, which Motorsport.com had said could arrive as soon as Round 6, the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix at Imola. Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz merely made such a possibility more conceivable when, ahead of the Australian Grand Prix, he said that Ferrari “clearly need to change something” considering Red Bull’s superiority.
“I think we realise now that Red Bull have a clear advantage everywhere and that we need to start looking to our right and to our left,” he added when speaking to media including PlanetF1.com.
