The Ferrari F1 team's boss Stefano Domenicali believes the investment that went in to the development of F10 is just not enough.
The red team were struggling for pace, and couldn't match its rivals in last weekend's Turkish GP.
The team had promised huge updates and an improved version of its F-Duct that would bring it closer to the Red Bulls.
However, the race revealed that in fact the team not only failed to catch up with the Red Bulls but were outpaced by Mclaren too.
"It is for sure true that we have invested a lot in the new system with the wing, but it is not enough and it is not perfect yet," said Domenicali after the Turkish GP.
He is now pinning hope that the new development set to be introduced next month in Valencia would help improve the car.
"What should happen in the next month is that in Valencia we should have a big update where there will be a lot of new parts on the car."
With the race in Montreal, Canada, first up before Valencia, in two weeks time, it would be a tough task for the Ferrari hold its own.
With only seven races gone, however, there is still time for the Maranello team to catch up with regular, but "right" updates.
They should make sure that they are not under pressure and bring the best possible solution to match its rivals in a race or two.
Domenicali echoed much the same thought, "It is not a case of being disappointed or not disappointed. We need to make sure the team is working hard and reacts straight away. The time is there, that is not the problem."
