the preparation for jeddah
How do you prepare for a GP on the Jeddah track? Matteo Togninalli, Ferrari’s track engineer manager, explains it this way: “On street circuits the driver variable is even more important than on the classic permanent tracks. For our part, we have to provide Charles and Carlos with a single-seater with constant behaviour, because they have to be in a position to get as close as possible to the walls, maintaining a regular pace over the lap without ever being at risk of damaging the car Overtaking is relatively easy on this track, so we will concentrate more on race pace, even more so with Charles given the penalties, but we won’t neglect qualifying because to have full confidence with the single-seater, the drivers must have the opportunity to try it even by pushing to the maximum”.
