Don't let the door hit you on the way out, Binotto. Or do.

Nothing, whoever comes now is going to race Binotto´s car. Changes could happen in trackside operations, strategy and so on but later in the season.

 

Yes and I wonder how much has been changed now in the background ..............

 

T

Binotto is the first step. Let’s see whom They bring in and what other changes are made. Ferrari started strong but the car went backwards in terms of development and the strategy has been horrible for years.

 

It's official now.

One positive thing is that the day Vasseur will be TP everything will be on Charles side.
At least we will avoid embarrassing episodes like Silverstone next year..

 

One down, let's hope the rest will follow!

 

I hope he goes there and takes his strategy team with him, ha-ha.

But realistically, who’s going to hire him and why? Not for his technical know-how—he hasn’t been in charge of an engine since the 2019 fiasco—and definitely not for his team management skills.

 

Unfortunately, while we can hope for more changes the following is probably the only certainty for next year, a wasted year:

Why Binotto's exit leaves Ferrari with an impossible target for F1 2023

I honestly don't know who would pick up Binotto as a TP. [shoulder shrug & hands up in the air]

My opinion says Binotto will demote to a technical role at Ferrari.

Absolutely ridiculous with insights.
Start to remind me the Scuderia in 1992 just before Todt arrival.

 

"Plausible Deniability"

 

There must be a job at the FIA for Binotto.

 

Juventus looking for a few directors ...

 

He can always return to his native Switzerland and run Sauber… into the ground before the Audi takeover.

Or maybe he’ll move a little to the east and go run Minardi… err, Alpha Tauri.

 

2nd place in 2022, Ferrari never happy outside of 1st place, but it's just been a revolving door.

 

You think Toto walking into a team that already had Aldo Costa, Bob Bell, Andy Cowell, Paddy Lowe onboard, and Lewis Hamilton on the way wasn't picking up a winning lottery ticket?

Toto's talent wasn't in recruiting the talent for the engineering side. His contribution was cleaning up Mercedes track operations and their pre-2013 cluster**** of a pit wall. I'd love to bring him to Ferrari to clean up their garage.

And as for Horner. Yes, he's a good team principle, but he also had Newey from the start. Even though they didn't find success early, Horner knew all they had to do was wait for the 09' rule changes for a shot to rise up the pecking order, and that's what happened.

Again, Vasseur will not have such luxuries. He is indeed walking into a Ferrari that can build fast cars, but Maranello don't have an ace designer on staff that has a long track record building winners. Simone Resta, David Sanchez, etc, are talented, but they've yet to hit the aero jackpot.

 

this. Development was stagnant and they are a running joke in terms of strategy. Like buying a good car from a shytty dealership….it all went sour.

 

Going, going, gone.

Finally.
