Ferrari did not quite have the perfect 2018 season, following some massive blunders by the strategic team and by Vettel too.
Team Principal Arrivabene’s position has come under threat ever since, primarily because of dodgy strategic calls and also because he was adamant to keep Kimi at Ferrari for one more year.
During the season, reports had stated that Arrivabene was in line to become the director of Juventus, as his time at Ferrari had apparently come to an end.
Now, Ferrari haven’t renewed Arrivabene’s contract for the next season and with Binotto in contention too, Italian media speculates that Binotto could take over from next season.
John Elkann has been visiting Maranello a little too often in the last few days and things have been kept away from the press, thus giving rise to speculation that a decision is soon to be announced.
Ferrari have also cancelled their year end press conference.
According to Corriere della Sera, John Elkann has been visiting Maranello to ensure that things are looking up at Ferrari.
Do you think Arrivabene should be sacked by Ferrari or will it be too harsh a step. Ferrari did make a massive improvement in car performance this season. Mercedes had been blowing them away in the past few seasons, but had a fight on their hands this time round.
Ferrari fans want a change, and they want a change now.
