Posting my rant/ideas about the Ferrarigate situation right now… bear with me or move on if that’s not your cup of tea.
All right, so I think we can all say something with ferrari has been off for the whole season, right?
LH struggling to adapt to a car and team with clear issues nobody seems brave enough to address, because it’s Ferrari, and Ferrari never fails in the eyes of the public or the press (italian press especially).
And the car DOES have issues, it’s been renown since day 2 of winter testing. And whose fault is that? Apparently no one is to blame, but the drivers, who have become Ferrari’s latest scapegoats.
I’m not even commenting on 16, but seems to me like he’s been driving differently this season? I don’t know.
All the vibes are just off, even moreso after summer break.
First we got Vasseur (bleagh) trying to cover his misses up with some vague weird remarks, now we got Ferrari Owner Elkann coming out of the blue to throw actual people under the bus (the drivers), and for what?
I don’t know, but doing this kind of comment to the italian press, he knew what he was doing. He was sending a clear message, and I don’t know if any of you are up to date with Elkann’s inheritance and tax fraud trial, but seems like he settled “out of court”.
He basically lost a very consistent amount of money (that he frauded from his own mother ehm ehm)…
Money he could not have anymore to invest in some venues he might have overspent on.
I don’t know, feels to me like someone is getting the ground ready for a shake up, maybe over winter break, maybe next summer break, but I’d keep an eye open for Christmas vacation.
