Ferrari Formula 1 chief Mattia Binotto says the f🌳ailure of Antonio Giovinazzi’s update❀d engine is “a concern” heading to this weekend’s Italian Grand Prix at Monza.

Ferrari introduced its ♋updated-spec engine at Spa last weekend, opting for its usual tactic of giving it to i൩ts customer teams, Haas and Alfa Romeo, before putting it into its own cars at the following race.

Alfa Romeo driver Giovinazzi was sidelined🀅 by an engine failure towards the end of Q1 on Saturday at Spa, forcing the team into a change for the race.

The incident also sparked concerns for Ferrari, with Bജinotto confirming after the race that the team would ꧑follow its usual procedure of evaluating the engine back at Maranello.

“That’s a good point, no doubt. We got it, and💫 obviously we need to analyse what happened,” Binotto said.

“As an eౠarly failure, normally it should be down to something wrong, quite detectable. The engine will go back to Maranello. First they will need to disassembl🌼e it, and try to understand.

“We’ve got a few day🐟s to react, but yes, it is a conc🦂ern.”

Ferrari was not alone in experiencing a failure with its updated engine at Spa, with two of Merce𒅌des’ customer engines – one on Sergio Perez’s Racing Point car; the other on Robert Kubica’s Williams – hitting trouble over the weekend.

Mercedes F1 chief Toto Wolff said the setba☂ck compromised the senior team – which ran the updated engines immediately – slightly, but that it did not want to take any risks.

“We introduced Phase 3 of our power unit and we had two failures on Checo’s and Robert’s cars which are not underst♊ood,” Wolff 🥂said.

“It didn’t compromise us massively, it did a tiಞny bit. We were not taking any risks in the race but it was certainly not a comfortable sꦗituation.

“T♓he failures looked to be different and are not analysed o🐓f yet and understood.”
