The te🌸am has been running Raikkonen's chassis, but believes it may have been damaged during an excursion over a large kerb at Turn 4 during FP1 on Friday. At the time of the incident, Ferrari believed that only the floor had been broken, but it now has found issues with the chassis itself.

As a precaution, Ferrari has suspended its running after just 12 laps for Fernando Alonso on Wednesday and is unlikely to run again. Oꦿn Tuesday the team was able to complete 69 laps despi🌳te causing a red flag in the morning session.
