John Elkann, who saw Charles Leclerc take a surprise pole position in a Ferrari with the special yellow mark at Monza, was at the Gazzetta dello Sport ahead of the Italian Grand Prix Ferrari will repeat itself in 2022 After the mistake, he said that decisive improvements are needed to be done.
However, Elkann added: “We have full confidence in Mattia Binotto and we are grateful to him and to all the engineers for everything they have done”.
F1 legend and former Ferrari driver Gerhard Berger says the spotlight is not on Matti Binotto.
“It’s not fair to bet everything on one person, but that’s exactly what happens so often at Ferrari,” Berger told Kronen Zeitung.
“On the other hand, I must admit that last year at least Ferrari was listless. This year, at least at the beginning, they had the fastest car. Binotto made it.”
“I don’t think Ferrari has the patience, but in the beginning it was the same with Jean Todt and Michael Schumacher. Michael had to defend Jean and say that he too will do his best. They were the most successful. We changed to one. team that did well “.
Matti Binotto seemed relieved when asked in Monza about John Elkann’s words of timely support.
“We know we have the president’s support,” Mattia Binotto told Sky Sport, also referring to John Elkann’s claims that Ferrari aims to win the title by 2026.
“It didn’t take an article or an interview to find out, so I think it’s more an external judgment than an internal one.”
“He said by 2026, not 2026, so it could come sooner.”
“We are here to work for this.”
“If we continue to grow as we did last year, I’m sure it won’t take long.”
