Ferrari is preparing ADUO 2 for Monza, featuring a larger turbine and a new compressor. The upgrade is expected to deliver at least 10 hp while improving Power Unit efficiency and turbocharger utilisation.

The larger turbo should also improve performance at high speeds and on circuits where the current architecture struggles.

Lewis Hamilton talks about his frustrations with the team during the race: “I want to win! I want to win! I’m here to win! and it’s difficult when you’re looking ahead and you see the two Mercedes drivers, they get the call and it’s done, and they execute straight away.

They let Kimi by and let him get on with the race.”

“I was on a different strategy and it’s not the same here… and that’s a little bit difficult. But we’ll take it offline, when I go back now I’ll speak to them about it.”

Vasseur confirmed that Hamilton exceeded the pit lane speed limit because he activated the speed limiter slightly earlier than he should have while exiting the pit lane. He also said Ferrari felt it would have been unfair to Charles to ask him to slow...

down so that Lewis’ penalty wouldn’t affect the finishing positions of their two drivers.

Fred Vasseur: “We never considered RB’s strategy because we pitted a little earlier than Max, and it seemed too ambitious to think we could go to the end of the race without taking tyre life into account.”

“The reality was different. We didn’t have the opportunity to complete a long run on all three tyre compounds during free practice, so we made two bets. Today, I can say those bets didn’t pay off.”

Leclerc with no Medium Tyre at all, and no new Soft Tyre for the race.

📻 | Santi: “Yellow flag, yellow flag”

📻 | Lewis Hamilton: “Where's Piastri?”

📻 | Santi: “Behind. Yellow flag.”

Ferrari’s updated “Macarena” rear wing is ready and reportedly set to debut in Hungary

The high-downforce specification features additional “hanger flaps” to increase rear load, a concept Mercedes has used since pre-season testing.

This update is aimed entirely at extracting the maximum from the SF-26, rather than something that will carry over into next season.

Lewis Hamilton post race: “I don't count myself unlucky. I think about my mistake that I made yesterday so I take full responsibility really for the fourth place I ended up getting because I damaged the car, then when they rebuilt the car they missed something on the suspension so the balance was...

completely different. So that meant I was probably a good couple tenths, maybe three tenths slower than I should have been in qualifying, and then I ended up further back, got in the incident, five second penalty…”

“So just like a domino effect from, I think a decision, well the mistake from myself. But the team have been doing a great job with strategy, pit stops, we are continuing to improve the car, I think our pace today without the damage, I think we could have been challenging for the win.”

Fred Vasseur on Lewis Hamilton’s penalty:“I think it’s garbage because that Lap 1 so far into the season there was no penalty for similar incidents.If you have a look at the corner,Russell had enough space on the left hand side.It’s not like he was close to the wall. More of a racing incident for me
