TECH WEEKLY: The key differences between how Hamilton and Leclerc are driving the Ferrari – and the changes made to help the Briton adapt


Ferrari’s home race around Imola this weekend could be a challenge, given the limitations of the car that has been evident in the last few races. But the team are working hard at developments – believed to be around the rear suspension – aimed at addressing these, though they are not expected to be seen until later in the season.
