Ferrari F1 drivers take new engines after Vettel’s failure

Ferrari Formula 1 drivers Sebastian Vettel and Charles Lecl🥃erc have taken on new power units for this weekend’s 70th Anniversary at ℱSilverstone.
Both drivers SF1000’s have been fi💯tted with new Internal Combustion Engine (ICE), turbo and MGU-H components after Vettel suffered a failure during Friday practice.
Ferrari confirmed the changes made to Leclerc’s car are just a pre𒊎caution and the team will face no penalties with the component alterations falling within their permitted allocations for the season.
“After yesterday's enꦑgine failure on Sebastian’s car, as a precaution we have changed🐽 Charles’ PU,” a Ferrari statement confirmed.
“This is also penalty free as we have🌃 not exceeded the number of components allowed in the regulations.”
Vettel’s Ferrari ground to a halt in the latter stages of the second practice session at Silverstone, with his caಞr leaking o🐎il down the old start-finish straight before he pulled over at Copse.
The four-time world champion described the issue as a “big failure” and said he had “no warning” of a problem before his Ferrari conked out𒁃.

Speaking of the failure, Vettel said: “No, no warning, was very sudden, obviously a failure, now we have to see what it is. It will probably take a couple of day🐟s as the engine will get shipped back and analysed.”
Vettel is lookin🎃g to bounce back at t🌠he second Silverstone round after enduring a disastrous British Grand Prix weekend, while Leclerc claimed his second podium finish of the season.
