Ferrari goodbye without appeal: an era ends, immediate decision

Farewell Ferrari without appeal: an era ends, immediate decision. The second part of the season without great results was expensive

On the track, he has not won since the Austrian Grand Prix, almost four months ago. But if the new revolution in the house of Ferrari were to materialize, it would certainly be a success for Charles Leclerc: via Mattia Binotto and inside the team principal, a friend of the Monegasque, a complete 3 in a row.

A final farewell to the Cavallino, with Mattia Binotto at the end of his run at the head of the track in Formula 1. Many media are speculating on this after the first indiscretions of Leo Turrini, a journalist very close to Ferrari events. The main team which started its career at the beginning of 2019 (before being at the head of the engineers) in place of Maurizio Arrivabene is at very high risk.

Under his leadership came 7 wins and 23 pole positions, plus second place among the constructors in 2019. But John Elkann, who is Ferrari’s chairman, decided the time had come for a shock. Too many management errors exhibited this year by the Cavallino wall and a degraded relationship with Charles Leclerc who is considered number 1 by the owner. This is why Fréderic Vasseur will arrive as the new main team in January.

Farewell Ferrari without appeal: the Scuderia denies but the name of Vasseur is very warm

A bombshell that shook the world of Formula 1 and was quickly denied by Maranello with an official statement: “Regarding the speculations that have appeared in some press media regarding the position of Scuderia team principal Mattia Binotto , Ferrari announces that it is totally unfounded ‘rumors.

In reality, however, the chances of seeing Vasseur, the current team principal of Alfa Romeo Sauber at Ferrari, are very high. And Leclerc would be happy, who has worked a lot with the French manager in the past, as well as his manager Nicholas Todt (son of Jean) who was a partner of Vasseur.

Born in 1968 (a year before Mattia Binotto), the French manager began very early as a man behind the team in the current Formula 2 and Formula 3 championships. In 1996, with the creation of Team ASM, he followed the maturation of a few young drivers who then wrote the history of Formula 1. One above all, Lewis Hamilton.

Then in 2004 he moved on to driving the ART Grand Prix on the track and the following year the team made its debut in GP2 which is the current Formula 2. On display 8 titles overall, 4 constructors (2005, 2006 , 2009 and 2015) and as many drivers with Lewis Hamilton, Nico Rosberg, Nico Hülkenberg. But also successes in the GP3 Series with Valtteri Bottas and finally Charles Leclerc. Mattia Binotto, an era at Ferrari is ending (ANSA)

The first official step in Formula 1 took place in 2016 with Renualt as team principal. From the following year until today, he held the same position at Alfa Romeo Sauber, making his F1 debut at Leclerc.
