F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali has advised Frederic Vasseur to “keep working with his head down” amid the “weight of pressure” of being Ferrari team principal.

Ferrari have endured a di꧃sappointing start to the 2025 F1 season.

Neither 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc nor 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton have f🧸inished on the pod👍ium in the opening four races of the season.

Ferrari’s 𓂃only highlight has been Hamilton’s dominant sprint race victory in Shanghai, whic♋h was overshadowed by their double disqualification following the grand prix.

The Bahraiꦅn Grand Prix proved slightly more competitive as Leclerc narrowly missed out on a top three ꦬfinish.

Ferrari intꩵroduced a new floor upgrade in Bahrain, which, according to both dr🐽ivers, worked as expected.

Domenicali, who was Ferrari’s team principal between 2008 and 2014, gaveꦦ his view ෴on his former team.

, Domenicali said: “I can’t afford to pass judgment, but I see a Ferrari that is very close to those who are winning.

“The only advice I can give Fred Vasseur, with whom I am in contactꦿ every day, is to keep working with his head down without feeling the weight of pressure that is natural for someone in that r🍸ole.

“I am convinced that we will soon see a Ferrari that 🦩🔜will win again this year.

“You have to keep🌄 on staying there, because this year the gaps are so small that the details make🐈 all the difference.

“Being Ferrari is something unique, I was talking about it with Ham💫ilton, who realised what it means for a champion like him to wear the red suit.”

Hamilton’s Ferrari challenge “extraordinary”

Ferr🔯ari’s F1 title drought dates back to 2008, Domenicali’s first year as team boss.

They won the constructors’ title, narrowly missing out on▨ tꦬhe drivers’ crown with Felipe Massa.

Under Domenicali’s leadership, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso missed out on the 2010 and 2012 titles to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sebastian Vettel.

A poor🎶 start to 2014 meant Domenicali w𒉰as replaced after a few races.

Domenicali sees Hamilton’s pꦉursuit of title success as “an extraordinary sporting one”.

“Lewis’ challenge at Ferrari is an extraordinary sporting one; winning right away is no easy ♑feat,” he added.

“I believe his strength lies in believing and growing together with the team. I want to stay positive, even if it’s obviously not easy. And then, Leclerc is an extraordinary driv🔯er who doesn’t want to miss the chance to prov🐻e he’s the strongest.

“♈There are extraordinary elements within the Ferrari team that are positive for the entire F1 world.”
