2025 Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team

Walking into a new regulations saga is not the time to be shedding engineers.

Seeing rumors about Diego Tondi(Head of Aero) possibly leaving.

Many have asked me this, so I'll answer.
There doesn't seem to be any chance that Chief Aeronautical Officer Diego Tondi will leave his position.
The problems that weakened the SF-25 from the outset are well known and weren't strictly aerodynamic.

Agree...
A TP talking about FP3 laptimes to paint a positive picture about the car - pathetic. How desperate is Fred ? What kind of 'dressing down' did he get from the Ferrari board ? Is Ferrari as a whole, regretting signing up a superstar driver instead of a superstar car designer ?

[Chuckjr]

Yes.

Why is Fred Vasseur blatantly lying ?

didn't expect this 'PR game' from Vasseur.

Lewis fell away by one second then two seconds when compared to the pace of Leclec at the end there? Anybody know why?

Sad news, Binotto took Wolf Zimmermann and Lars Schmidt (Lead engineer performance development ICE) from us. (c) autoracer

If I were a German working in Italy, I would love to go "home" to Audi! I don't see why not? Would be lovely to work for maybe more poroper German team since BMW Sauber (Yes still in Switzerland, I know).. And Toyota in Cologne didn't count did it? lol

Also he’s talking about Monza- probably the most unique track on the calendar these days package wise.
You get the feeling that if Ferrari beat one or both of the McLarens in the a race this year it’ll be a ‘job well done’

They did. In Monaco. Does that count as an actual race ?

His job is probably on the line. I think Ferrari has a personnel problem. They are not based in the UK. Italy simply doesn't pay as well as the rest of Europe either to attract the best European talent - not sure if this is also a factor as I am unfamiliar with Ferrari pay.

I am convinced that in a budget cap era the UK teams have a much bigger advantage in terms of idea exchange from one team to another as it's simply not as hard for personnel to move between teams. Moving to Italy, integrating especially with families is a much more trickier proposition.

Unless they nail the next regulation, it will be a repeat again.

Ferrari should just open a UK base. They might benefit from it.

Ah yes so they did. Ok so I’ll re-comment.
If they beat both Mclarens and somebody else wins the race they’ll count it as ‘job well done’
