Although he is known as Lord Perceval around the circuits, Leclerc finished 5th overall in 2023.

What do we know about the Ferrari Project 676?

The new 2024 car for Ferrari is being called Project 676. Weight is one of the most crucial factors in an F1 car. Ferrari had a disadvantage by being 6 kgs above the FIA technical regulations. This led to neither of the racers being able to perform as they intended to.

Although finishing 3rd is respectable, Leclerc has more potential which could be unlocked with a better car. Looking at the 2023 season, Ferrari has decided to work on better cars and Project 676 looks like it is it.

Ferrari’s Project 676, led by Enrico Cardile, achieved a significant weight reduction target. The new F1 model is expected to meet the minimum weight limit of 798 kg, in contrast to the SF-23. Ferrari 676 is the first Cavallino car with a ground effect, enhancing aerodynamic performance. The new ground effect manages airflow beneath the car, improving downforce and stability.
