Ferrari duo Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz had their Formula 1 cars dialled back to their Imola-spec parts as the Italian squad hoped to find an answer to its recent performance problems.
The team had introduced two larger-scale upgrade packages this season: one at Imola, and the other at Barcelona, as it sought to maintain a regular cadence of adding performance to the car. The Imola upgrades appeared to work out for the most part and allowed Ferrari not only to keep pace with the front-runners, but to win the Monaco Grand Prix.
