According to the information gathered, there is some dissatisfaction within the factory, as the objective was quite different. Reason for the disappointment? The great work put together on the tuning of the single-seater.
Three free practice sessions spent on understanding the car in order to increase its performance in high-fuel configuration. A precise set-up to optimise the car with so much petrol on board that in fact did not pay off and on the contrary deceived.
However, which was confirmed to us just yesterday: the fine tuning on the AMR24 was incorrect. Not functional, in short. But the good news is that the team has apparently understood why and has already been working since Saturday evening to correct this situation.
Does this mean that in Jeddah the car will be strong and everything will go right? Theory says so, but as we know, it will only be the track that will confirm the goodness of the measures to 'cure' the AMR24. On the other hand, we know very well that in F1 you don't gain tenths overnight.
Having 'learned their lesson', as they say, 'by the book', the technicians led by the Luxembourgian engineer will present themselves in Jeddah, in a few days' time, with much clearer ideas.
Among other things, the intention is to minimise a certain understeer attitude, with a lot of oversteer coming out of corners, which since pre-season has bedevilled the drivers' handling, limiting the potential of the car wrapped in British racing green.
