The galloping horse, which faced numerous reliability issues, retirements and strategic errors in last season’s races, finished second in the constructors’ standings behind Red Bull, the team of champion Max Verstappen.

Mattia Binotto resigned after being found to be the main culprit, and Frédéric Wasser, who came from Alfa Romeo, became the new team principal.

“The goal is victory, unequivocally,” said Charles Leclerc. The second world champion will also represent Ferrari this season alongside the Spaniard Carlos Sainz Jr.
