Carlos Sainz reckons Ferrari can “play a better game” to battle Red Bull on different circuits after struggling with tyre wear in Bahrain f1 SaudiArabianGP
This left Sainz to describe the Silverstone squad’s turn of speed as “very concerning” for Ferrari. However, switching to a track where the Scuderia “cook the rear tyres less” would, he reckoned, enable the team to put up a greater fight.
Degradation was notably also a weakness of the F1-75 in 2022, as Verstappen used a tyre advantage in particular to overthrow Leclerc to win in Imola and the inaugural Miami GP. Sainz reckoned this flaw had not yet been addressed for the new SF-23, describing the levels of degradation as"the same". He continued: “It’s about as bad as it was last year. It’s just that the other two cars [Red Bull and Aston] for some reason found something that means they degrade half [as much].”
In Ferrari’s quest to battle Red Bull on the Jeddah Corniche Circuit, the superior top speed shown throughout pre-season testing and the Bahrain Grand Prix weekend should suit the flowing Saudi street circuit.

Why the Saudi GP could throw up a different F1 mix to BahrainThe 2023 Bahrain Grand Prix will not go down as an all-time classic Formula 1 race. While the sheer dominance of Max Verstappen and Red Bull was deeply impressive, the reality is that audiences will be inclined to switch off if the remaining 22 rounds are similarly one-sided.
