If Ferrari want to challenge for wins, they will have to be bold with development. I guess with that comes risks that they might become less consistent and could cost them overall performance.
Are there any rumours of what is being worked in the wind tunnel?
Huge bodywork upgrade for Imola is what has been reported.
Since this car is brand new and behaves very differently from the previous one, i would say improvements won't come just from the wind tunnel.
There might be some setup adjustments that will help the team extract more pace.
The problem is, when you tinker with setup sometimes there might be some unintended consequences, the setup that gives you more qualy and early stint pace, might hurt your tire deg...
So i would urge some patience, and no despair if for whatever reason Ferrari is inconsistent at some odd races before mid season(and maybe after).
I suspect since Ferrari is (in)famous for deg, their current setup is very conservative, just trying to make sure things work, let's see if there's more to come from here.

I don't think he was in a position to challenge Max. I do think he's upset that Ferrari fell flat on their face with his car in the first race of the season, just like last year.
I don't either, in a cold analysis Max is too far up the road, without having to push...
It's hard to think that Charles could finish this far up the road from Carlos.
But maybe he fancies his chances of "making it difficult" for him, i don't, but maybe he does
Keeping Verstappen honest, making him react to your strategy choices, would already be a huge step.
