Scuderia Ferrari has confirmed that its former team principal, Maurizio Arrivabene, is leaving the team. Italian media broke the news this morning before the team released a short statement, marking Binotto as his replacement.
Sebastian Vettel
Charles LeClerc

High res image of the SF70h steering wheel. Quite rare that Ferrari releases something like this I think.

It's usually for an oil pump. Not sure why they need to manually select an oil pump, but most cars will have a similar button.
I think that they have a manual button to circumvent the interpretation of oil as moveable ballast.Just_a_fan wrote: ↑02 Jan 2019, 11:25It's usually for an oil pump. Not sure why they need to manually select an oil pump, but most cars will have a similar button.
1. Which ideas of James Allison are you talking about?GoranF1 wrote: ↑02 Jan 2019, 15:37Few things interests me about Ferrari 2019.
1. How will they menage their development path now that all James Allison ideas are already being introduced( seems they already got lost by the end of 2018)
2. Will they realize soon enough into the season that it is Leckerk they should focus on instead of Vettel.
3.Ferrari since last domination era 2000-04, ussualy has periods of good/bad seasons.....2005 bad 2006 good 2007 good 2008 good 2009 bad 2010 good 2011 bad 2012 good 2013 good 2014 bad 2015 good 2016 bad 2017 good 2018 good...so numbers say it is very likely 2019 will be bad in terms of car form....
The whole car. Obviously you're not familiar with internal Ferrari politics, so this is the general MO:
How Ferrari handle the obvious new guy coming in and Vettel's obvious attempts to politically outflank him will be interesting. Ferrari simply cannot manage drivers.2. Seems like you've already realized even before seeing Leclerc's first performances in the Ferrari. Respect!
When was Ferrari's last championship again? I forget. They've supposedly had two good seasons.......and haven't won anything.3. This approach doesn't make any sense - not even a bit.
I don’t understand how you come up with the statement that the whole car is James Allison’s idea. And I also don’t understand why you think that they run out of development mileage this season. Maybe you can go in further detail?munudeges wrote: ↑02 Jan 2019, 18:46The whole car. Obviously you're not familiar with internal Ferrari politics, so this is the general MO:
- Take ideas from another team or from an individual within the team.
- Politically destroy individual, apportion blame and pass off their ideas as their own.
- Ride on the wave of those ideas until one or both of the following happens:
- Ideas run out of development mileage within the current regulations. That happened this year.
- There is a change in the regulations and it's back to square one.
- Go to 1.

It remains to be seen how much longer Fiat will fund this political circus now that they have the name they really want in the sport, Alfa, and they can run that team much cheaper, with better facilities and less political and media nonsense.
Beacuse Vettel is the biggest fraud in F1 history.... I said back in 2013 that guy will never ever win anything in F1 when he separetes from Adrian Newey.LM10 wrote: ↑02 Jan 2019, 19:35I don’t understand how you come up with the statement that the whole car is James Allison’s idea.

I agree that it’s gonna be interesting to see how Ferrari will handle the driver’s situation. Leclerc shows big potential. Though, it’s a bit exaggerated to say that he’s the one Ferrari totally needs to concentrate on (like GoranF1 did) even before having seen any performances at all.
As for the last part of your comment, the fact that Ferrari has not won anything in a long period of time doesn’t change my opinion on the approach with good and bad years being totally senseless.
