Ferrari, Maurizio Arrivabene left, in his place Mattia Binotto as team principal
ROME – There is a resounding turnaround in Ferrari's leadership: Maurizio Arrivabene leaves, in its place, the current technical director Mattia Binotto arrives at the Sports Management. Between the team principal and the former 25-year-old chief engineer in the stable it seems that the clutches have reached an unsustainable crisis point, reveals the Gazzetta dello Sport that launched the scoop. The official announcement should arrive today.
The non-renewal of the contract of Arrivabene and the criticism of the machine itself of the same manager, who has been in command position for two years, would have accelerated the separation. On which obviously weigh the two seasons with a single-seater finally competitive but equally without wins, also, it must be said, for the errors of the first Vettel guide.
The death of Sergio Marchionne represented a decisive watershed. According to the Gazzetta, however, the rotation would have been promoted by Marchionne. "Among the guilt of Arrivabene – reports Luigi Perna – there is the fact of having had a questionable strategy, even at the media level. When it became clear that the World Cup was running for the umpteenth time, Ferrari's number one criticized the car, insisting on a setback in the technical development that lasted only two races (Singapore and Sochi), instead of seriously the results and staff crisis of Vettel, which remained firm at the success of Spa at the end of August ".
