Charles Leclerc says Scuderia Ferrari must address a lack of engine performance after the opening phase of the season. Despite solid results, he believes the team is losing ground to quicker rivals, particularly on straights. Leclerc noted that while the car is competitive in other areas, improving power output will be essential if Ferrari is to consistently fight at the very front.
