“After t🎃his we’ll download, we’ll go through all the comments - things I said and vice versa.

“Generally, I’m not one that likes a lot ꦯof information in-race, unless I ask for it. He did his best today and we’ll move forward.” 

Vasseur confident Ferrari will “learn” from Australia

“It’s the first race, th🦹e first time that we have to communicate between the pit wall and the car,” Vasseꦉur said.

“I thought that we can do a better job and to know each other a bit more. For sure it was not a clean one at all, but the๊ strategy was difficult.

“We need to find a better way to communicate between the car and the pit wall, but we will 💖learn from race one and it’s not an iওssue.”
