“I’ve been able to look at the Ferrari, and it’s really a wonder how narrow the car is. I hope it will go as fast as Red Bull and Mercedes. Honestly, the car is a gem. Red Bull is nothing special because it is a demonstration car, but the Ferrari will provide a shock,” said Alesi.

“Different from the cars seen in recent years. Innovative to the max. Until last year we drove the best cars in the history of F1, well balanced but spiteful, if you lost control for a moment, you would crash. This Ferrari seems to me even more responsive, the suspension is stiffer, we will have to get used to handling it,” said Sainz on the F1-75.
