Ex-Ferrari test driver Marc Gene has revealed that their 2024 F1 car is feeling “very differen🎶t” when driven on the team’s simulator.

Things are rampi🐎ng up in the world of F1 as the start of launch season is nearly upon us.

Ferrari will reveal their 2024 F1 challenger on February 13, with the dubbed ‘Project 676’ expected🥃 to be radically different compared to its predecessor.

After a strong 2022, Ferrari started last year on the bꦡackfoot as they altered their design philosophy to favour straight line-speed and lo💛w-speed corners.

Whi💟le they were the only team to win a race, outside of Red Bull, it was ultimately another disappointing year for the Scuderia.

In a bid to close the gap to Red Bull, Ferrari are expected to introdജuce an entire✨ly new design concept for 2024.

Ge𓂃ne, who iꦿs currently Ferrari’s brand ambassador, shared some information early on the new car.

“But it is true that last year at this point we were no longer completely convinced with the car from whꦦat the simulator told us and this year the sensations are very different.

“But we still have to wait to see the car on the𒀰 track, which will be on February 13 and then the pre-season test in Bahrain.”

Gene conceded that fighting for the F1 world championship in 2024 ไ“is a big optimistic”, but remains hopeful Ferrari are much closer.

“It’s difficult,” admits Gene, “because Red Bull had a very important margin last year and they say that this year’s car is much better. They are the fav꧟ourites , obvious𝔍ly.

“Fighting with them for the World Championship is a bit optimistic to say, but to take one more step forward and be able to figh🔥t more assiduously with them, yes.”
