Ferrari will reportedly change their front suspension design with their new 2025 F1 car, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton's first for the team.

The SF-25꧒ will feature a reconfigured pull-rod suspension at the front in an aerodynamic switch influenced by new chassis technical director Loic Serra, according to Italian publication .

Ferrari’s desig💦n shift aims to increase energy on the tyres to boost maximum performance over a single lap, something which was a weakness of the SF-24.

It is hoped slippa♋ge and subsequent tyre 🦹degradation can be limited, along with other packaging and aerodynamic performance advantages.

La Gazzetta’s report adds that Ferrari’s 2025 challenger will include “further innovations to the floor and the desig🌠n of 🐠the bellies” to optimise aerodynamic flow.

If confirmed, Ferrari will join Red Bull, McLaren, RB and Sauber in running pull-rod 🎐front suspension, with the other teams favouring push-rod.

Technical partner Haas have decided against taking Ferrari’s new fron⛄t suspension design and will instead continue to use the 2024 pushrod version.

Speaking in December, Ferrari team principal Fred💜 Vas✨seur revealed his side’s 2025 car will retain “less than one percent” of the parts that existed on its predecessor.

“Sometimes 🀅you don’t realise you’re taking risks until afterward,” Vasseur said.

“The car will be completelyﷺ new; I think we’ll have less than 1 per cent of the parts in common with the 2024 car. It’s a different project, but the same aಌpplies to everyone.”

Ferrari hopes the SF൲-25 will help the team deliver a first F1 world championship since 2008.

The Scuderia fell 14 points shy of winning t♏he constructors’ title last year, with McLaren narrowly beating them to the crown.

Ferr🅷ari have been boosted by the marque signing of seven-time world champion Lewis💜 Hamilton, who partners Charles Leclerc.

Hamilton is hoping his bombshell switch from Mercedes to F1's most famous team can help him secure a record-br▨eaking eighth world title.

The SF-25 will be unveiled on 19 Fe🎉bruary, with Hamilton and Leclerc expected to complete an initial shakedown run at🎐 Fiorano on the same day.
