Former Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto was succeeded by Fred Vasseur in 2023. After four years of dedicated service, the Italian had to step aside. However, Binotto is no longer on the sidelines, as he has now taken on a prominent role in Audi’s upcoming Formula 1 team. Under Vasseur’s leadership, Ferrari has experienced a moderate level of success this season, but Binotto believes that the changes aren’t revolutionary.
Current Status of Ferrari Under Vasseur
The Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera inquired about the current dynamics at Ferrari. Has there been a significant transformation since Vasseur took over? Binotto responded, “Fred (Vasseur) has simply continued the project. He hasn’t instigated any revolutions; the organization was already well-structured and functioning efficiently, though he has certa.comy made some of his own choices.” One notable decision made by Vasseur was to draft Lewis Hamilton ahead of the 2025 season, a move that Binotto has his own opinions about.
Binotto’s Loyalty to Ferrari
Even though he has taken on a new role at Sauber and is looking forward to working with Audi’s team, Binotto still secretly roots for Ferrari. “Whenever Ferrari triumphs, it brings me joy,” he shared. “I have a deep understanding of the team and appreciate the relentless effort that has gone into enhancing their performance.” Before Vasseur’s appointment, Binotto dedicated more than 28 years of his life to the Scuderia.
Reflecting on His Journey at Ferrari
“My time at Ferrari provided me with countless wonderful experiences,” he elaborated. “I am truly thankful to have been part of such an exceptional team and to have contributed to numerous remarkable victories. Serving as team principal was a magnificent challenge. We established a solid foundation for a robust organization and cultivated a strong team of emerging talents.”
Fond Memories and Lessons Learned
In summarizing his tenure at Ferrari, Binotto remarked, “Overall, it was an incredibly positive period. I created many cherished memories, while also learning from my mistakes. I still keep various photographs and memorabilia from those days at home. Nowadays, I feel nothing but happiness when I see the red team achieving victory; it reassures me that I played a part in those successes.”
As Ferrari continues to navigate the ever-evolving landscape of Formula 1, the contributions of leaders like Binotto will undoubtedly resonate through the team’s future endeavors. With new management and strategic choices, the Scuderia is aiming to reclaim its position as a dominant force in the sport. The synergy between seasoned expertise and fresh talent could very well pave the way for a glorious renaissance in Ferrari’s racing history.
