This was on Autosport this morning in the column adjacent to the Top Story about Ross Brawn named Honda F1 Team Principal. Ferrari announce new tech structure . . . The Ferrari team have announced Stefano Domenicali will take on the role of Director of the Gestione Sportiva, a position held by Jean Todt. Domenicali was the team's sporting director. Ferrari also said technical director Mario Almondo will now be the team's operations director, while Aldo Costa will take on the role of technical director. Gilles Simon will be Ferrari's engine director. The announcement comes after Honda confirmed Ferrari's former technical director Ross Brawn will join the Japanese squad as their team principal. * * * * * Should make for a very interesting time in F1.

Since Todt is stepping down, why isn't Brawn the one to take over from him? I think Ferrari is making a huge mistake letting Brawn go to BAR-Honda.
Luca must have had his good reasons $$$$...but you can't argue with success and he shares with King Midas that magic touch. 2008 will be an exciting year. Rumors also have it that Jarno Trulli has firmed up his position.
