Ferrari is not ruling out a protest against the controversial anti-‘porpoising’ clampdown in Formula 1. According to Piero Ferrari, the Maranello marque’s vice president, Ferrari fully intends to “assert our reasons” for opposing the rule changes. “We will assert our reasons,” said Ferrari, whose father was team founder Enzo Ferrari. “For years, Ferrari had an engine deficit against Mercedes, but we did not ask for any favours or shortcuts,” Ferrari insisted. The bright side for Ferrari is that the Italian team has arguably done a better job even than Red Bull in terms of nailing the first year of the all-new 2022 regulations. “As a company we are proud of what our racing department has achieved so far,” Piero Ferrari confirmed.
