Ferrari really need a win this weekend, to stop
Mercedes running away with the championship before it has really got going, and
on paper things look good for them.
Their straight-line performance in
qualifying has been one of the stand-out features of the last two races –
“massive,” as Red Bull’s Max Verstappen puts it – and Baku as a track is much
more similar to Bahrain, where they were fast, than China, where they were not,
particularly.
On top of that, they have a significant aerodynamic upgrade for
this race, centred on tweaks around the barge board area and floor. “Just
trying to bounce back from three difficult weekends and hopefully now we can be
in front,” Charles Leclerc said.
“Trying to put the set-up right will be a key
thing and then just the overall development of the car.” Lewis Hamilton
certainly expects a tough fight: “You’re going to see this weekend Ferrari are
probably going to be extremely quick since they’ve got an upgrade and this is a
track that has boded well for them in the previous years.”
