Heads Roll at Ferrari - Arrivabene Out, Binotto steps up
After two nearly years, Ferrari has decided they need a change at the head of the team. Arrivabene who has orchestrated a major change of form of the Ferrari team from the doldrums of the post Schumacher years, has been pushed out as he failed to deliver a title win over the last two seasons where the Ferrari cars have shown incredible performance progress relative to the Silver Arrow.
The biggest step forward of the Ferrari package has clearly been in the engine department which Binotto heads. Hence, one can see why Binotto has been seen as the man that can get Ferrari the long coveted constructors title. I personally think Arrivabene has done a remarkable job bringing Ferrari to the brink of winning the title in 2018. However, he clearly did so on the back of Binotto's excellence in the engine department.
I have a feeling that the change would be good for Ferrari. But l applaud Arrivabene for a great job, sometimes your successes can be your problem.
