Ferrari: Vettel and Leclerc on the simulator to get out of the SF90 crisis together
The two Cavallino titular pilots present in Maranello for the launch of the SF90 Stradale used the opportunity to both contribute to the development of solutions for the Canadian GP with a simulator session from which very interesting indications emerged.
They were both in Maranello for the launch of the SF90 Stradale, the first Ferrari hybrid in the history of the Cavallino capable of a thousand horses, just like the Formula 1 power unit. We are talking about Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc the two Scuderia drivers.
So far there is nothing strange: taking the name of the car that is running the GP for the last long-awaited supercar, Ferrari has wanted to point out what and how much the technology transfer from F1 to the cars of the series could be, so the presence of the pilots line-up was perfectly in line with the launch of the last Rossa.
The interesting aspect is, instead, that both Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc have then alternated in the Ferrari simulator working hard for the resolution of the configuration with which the SF90 will have to run in Canada, bearing in mind that the one in Montreal should be a favorable track to the characteristics of the Maranello machine, capable of excellent top speeds thanks to good aerodynamic efficiency at the expense of the downforce.
The two drivers were able to test the necessary mid-load aerodynamic package on the Notre Dame circuit on the "spider" and dedicated part of the session to understanding how to trigger the warm-up of the C3, C4, C5 tires, ie the same compounds more soft that have already been used in Monte Carlo.
The SF90 has its own Achilles heel precisely because it fails to make the tires work in the temperature window provided by Pirelli and according to the rumors various trim solutions with different heights and settings would have been "tried".
All this to say that in the heart of the Racing Department the controversies of the last few days have not shaken the Scuderia: Sebastian Vettel perfectly knows that the Principality's second place is a result of situations, because the Red in pure performance was inferior also to the Red Bull, while Charles Leclerc has erased from memory the disastrous Saturday of Monte Carlo that ruined his weekend in the home race, to focus on Montreal.
The presence of the two pilots in the simulator is proof of how they want to get out of the difficulties in Maranello as a group, in the belief that a victory could unlock a situation, not only technical but also psychological, very difficult ...
