Trending "There is an upgrade package coming in Zandvoort, there is a new floor as part of that upgrade package. "Ferrari have got to get rid of the bouncing, and if they don't, then the season is gone - they cannot run the car in the set-up they need to extract the maximum pace."If they don't get rid of the bouncing, then Charles [Leclerc] and Carlos [Sainz] are going to have very sore heads after the Italian Grand Prix, because the last place you want that bouncing to occur is Monza. 'Zandvoort a critical weekend for Ferrari'"I think Zandvoort is a critical weekend for Ferrari. If those upgrades work, brilliant, they are back in the ballpark, and we'll see what happens from there on in."Maybe they can take advantage of a weaker Red Bull, if we are to believe what Helmut Marko was saying."It's mouth-watering what is coming up at Zandvoort. The true answer to whether Ferrari will be the team to look out for, or whether it will be Red Bull or Mercedes, is anyone's guess."Formula 1 returns after the summer break with the Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort on August 23-25, live on Sky Sports F1.
