“Let’s wait a couple of races,” he said.

“Bahrain is a specific track in terms of ch꧟♔aracteristics.

“We’ll have to go t🔯o Saudi, Australia and maybe Japan to have the order of performance for the teams.

“Everything is delivering as expected.

“Maybe the𝔍 step from last year to this year is good enough or not? We’ll find out…

“Thereꦬ is a different approach from 2023. We started with a good ba⛦se but it was a shock to us, how good it was at the beginning.

“We were not a big team, offಌ-track, in terms of deve꧟loping the car.

“We learned lessons last year.

“To become a contender for the championship in the fu﷽ture, it was an important season.

“This year we start with a good base line, and with a lot of things in the pipeline for the ඣrest of the season.

“It will be interesting to see if we can keep the pace of de𓄧veloping the car.

“We didn’t meet those expectations last year. We ♒want to improve in🅰 that regard.”
