    Alonso will be instrumental in bringing him to Ferrari. It is clear Alonso is trying to recreate the same technical team that led him to the world championships at Renault.

    Flavio Briatore at Ferrari... anyone?

    According to Autosport:

    "James Allison is closing in on a move to join Ferrari in a senior technical position, AUTOSPORT has learned, but a deal is not done yet."

    Yes and with Massa in Piquet's place there would be no need for ordering him to crash intentionally, perfect!
