Ah yes, the fan calling for stability within the team. As if stability by itself generates a winning car.JordanMugen wrote: ↑08 Jul 2020, 17:15AngelicPrincess wrote: ↑08 Jul 2020, 12:49EDIT: Furthermore, if we were to assume that the PUs produce around 1000 BHP then the Ferrari PU is lacking around 60 HP which doesn't seem unreasonable.
Thank you for such a great analysis!
There are no silver bullets in power unit development, it will require steady gains that do not compromise reliability.
It seems Ferrari had concentrated on power unit developments which are no longer permitted, so it will take some time to catch back up to Renault, Honda and Mercedes.
Fired and replaced with whom? That will not achieve anything. There are plenty of talented engineers in these departments, it would be most unwise to let go of them. Firing people is the Ferrari way, but it is not productive. You need stability to achieve good results.fritticaldi wrote: ↑08 Jul 2020, 16:51The Ferrari is flawed in the following areas: Engine, Chassis and Aero. Basically the entire technical staff should get fired.
There is no point in keeping the same people around if they are incapable.
Back when Ferrari cleansed itself of the likes of Stefano Domenicalli, Pat Frye, Nikolas Tomazis, and others, they immediately started to see improvements.
And do you know where those key technical people went to after Ferrari? No where. After a year or 2 off, Frye joined one of the teams at the back of the field.
If they were all still working at Ferrari, Ferrari would be in even worse shape than they are now.
F1 nowadays is about 90% car, maybe 10% driver. If that.
It's going to take an ungodly amount of talent and organization to unseat the Mercedes juggernaut at this point in F1 history.
We're right back to where we are in the '30s before the War, and to a slightly lesser extent in the '50s...with Mercedes being unbeatable.
And you want to keep the same people in charge at Maranello.
