Vasseur on main issue behind Ferrari’s Austrian GP struggles

Ferrari endured a difficult weekend at the Austrian Grand Prix, with Team Principal Fred Vasseur attributing their struggles to a lack of pace compared to Mercedes and Max Verstappen rather than strategy alone. Despite attempts to compensate through aggressive pit strategies, both Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton ultimately finished in fifth and eighth place, respectively. Vasseur acknowledged that the team overpushed in the opening laps to maintain pace with the leaders, leading to excessive tyre wear. Moving forward, Ferrari aims to learn from these mistakes and shift their focus toward the upcoming British Grand Prix, hoping for a stronger performance at Hamilton’s home race.
