«We cannot accept the current situation as a team called Ferrari. That’s why we have to change the direction of development! » That says team boss Mattia Binotto (50) – and is currently doubting his words himself.

New horror in Hungary
The Italian experienced the further downfall of the proud Squadra in Hungary with a wrong tire choice and screwed-up pit stops, which has always been among the top four among the designers since 1981 (5th World Cup place). Ferrari is fifth after three races.
–
Above all thanks to the 18 World Championship points from the second place by Leclerc, which were rather given at the chaos kick-off in Spielberg (with nine failures).

Bad car too slow
Monegasse (11th) was constantly weathering the poor road conditions of his car on Sunday. Vettel (6th) complained about the lack of speed: “There is currently no more than fifth position.”
–
The best lap times of the six pilots with Ferrari power show how slowly the two red cars (already called “cucumbers”) were traveling (see box below). Eleven other drivers were faster.

“Gedopter” Ferrari now clean
The problems lie not only with the hybrid engine, which doped the difficulties until the end of 2019. Now you can (or may) not add more petrol to the engine than allowed!
–
But the chassis also tears Ferrari into the abyss. And hardly anything can be changed in the next few months (like the engine). Only the aerodynamics have not yet been frozen by the FIA.

«I feel sorry for our fans»
What now? Binotto made a fiery speech: «I feel sorry for our fans worldwide. Especially the lapping of our cars hurts is difficult to digest. At Ferrari no stone is left unturned. Now everyone in our departments has to ask questions. You also need more courage. There is no other solution to change the uncomfortable situation. »
–
Then Binotto goes one step further: “If you fire people, the car won’t get any faster.”
–
Only Vettel stays calm
Maybe Binotto, who has been in Maranello for over 25 years, will also question himself? With the early announcement of Vettel’s dismissal on May 12, Binotto did itself and the team no favor. It is now mainly the German who keeps calm and nervous in the red panic orchestra. And shows that as a four-time world champion at 33, he didn’t get out of shape.

Waiting for the 1000th World Cup run
Mattia Binotto is already looking forward to September 13th when Ferrari competes in Mugello for the 1000th time in Formula 1. On the demanding driving course owned by Ferrari and where no World Cup has yet taken place. Hopefully the Reds have recovered and strengthened by the anniversary!
–
4 drivers for Formula 1…
Former engineer Binotto also has to solve the next problem. Robert Shwartzman (Russ), Marcus Armstrong (Neus), Mick Schumacher (De) and Callum Ilott (Gb) are four Formula 2 drivers with GP ambitions from the Ferrari Academy. Whether he can park one or two for 2021 with his engine customers Haas or Alfa Sauber? With the three-year commitment of Spaniard Carlos Sainz alongside perennial favorite Charles Leclerc (until 2024), they are denied the future in the factory team!

The fastest race lap of the 6 drivers with Ferrari PS- Giovinazzi (Alfa Sauber) 1: 20.096
- Raikkonen (Alfa Sauber) 1: 20.232
- Vettel (Ferrari) 1: 20.363
- Magnussen (Haas) 1: 20,477
- Leclerc (Ferrari) 1: 20.821
- Grosjean (Haas) 1: 20,889
11 drivers were faster last Saturday
