Priority on support in slow turns<\/b><\/p>\n
The 2019 season was full of lessons for Ferrari on several aspects of the competition, particularly in balancing top speed and the car’s cornering behavior. The Italian team’s car often stood out with good straight-line performance, but this advantage diminished during sequences of slow corners.<\/p>\n
For the 2020 season, Ferrari says it is ready to trade a few thousandths of a second in straight lines for good handling and maneuverability on slower tracks. Binotto reminds that the new livery will be more efficient in terms of downforce, but the balance between downforce and low drag will be better understood during testing in Barcelona.<\/p>\n

It will not be the case. A month before the start of the 2020 season, Mattia Binotto recalled that the priority for the Ferrari team was to retain their driver Sebastian Vettel for the 2021 season. Certainly, no contract has been signed at the moment, but both parties are reassuring about the continuation of the collaboration.<\/p>\n

The presentation of the SF1000 was an opportunity for the team to showcase advancements on the power unit and compliance with regulations.<\/p>\n
The Italian firm will this year resort to a redesign of the combustion chamber and the mode of operation of the pistons to maintain engine power while complying with the regulation requiring a double fuel flow sensor in the power unit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
