Red Bull boss Christian Horner believes168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Lewis Hamilton’s first Ferrari F1 challꩲenger - the SF-25 - is the “standout” car on the grid for its unℱique design philosophy. 

Ferrari𝓰 officially unveiled their new car last week ahead of a shakedown🍎 at Fiorano.

Chassis technical director Loic Serra has said that Ferrari have changed “99% of the car” for 2025 as they look to secure the first F1 world title in꧑ nearly ൩20 years.

One major change ꦫhas been a switch to a pull-rod front suspension, which has been done to give them “greater scope for aero development”.

While the general🔴 concept is a continuation of last year’s car, Horner feels that Ferrari’s challeng🔯er is completely different to the rest of the grid, making it the “differentiator”.

Speaking in the team pr🌄incipal’s press conference on day one of pre-se༒ason testing at the Bahrain International Circuit, Horner said: “I think into this cycle of regulations it’s clear that the cars have converged and they look very, very similar.

“I think probably the🙈 Ferrari is the standout a🌸s the probably being the differentiator. That’s inevitable that marginal gains are going to be there.

“Every surfa🅰ce on our car is different to last year but it looks similar as it’s a similar philosophy. You can see that other cars have converged with that. That’s what’s going to make the racing so tight this year.”

Horner predicts “eight winners” in F1 2025

With 🌳F1’s technical regulations remaining stable over the winter, the battle at the front is expected to be closer than ever.

The top four teams - McLaren, Ferrari, Red Bull, and Mercedesꦉ - are all expected to be in🗹 race-winning contention, as was the case at times last season.

As a resu🐬lt, Horner reckons there could be eight di🐲fferent winners in 2025.

Last year, seven of the eight drivers driving for the t𒉰op four teams🌊 won races.

Only 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez failed to do so at Red Bull.

“That some cars might suit some circuits better than others and it’s all going to be about extrac♐ting the maximum from your platform, from your package and getting it right on the da🔜y,” Horner added.

“The biggest winner out of that will be the fans and the followers of the sport because there could easily be eight winners this year and some curveballs in there as well. 🥃It really could be pretty open.”
