The split between Mattia Binotto and and Ferrari looks 'strange' if the team hasn't lined up a replacement for him, according to TV pundit and former F1 driver Martin Brundle.
Ferrari’s parting of ways with team boss Mattia Binotto appears"strange" if no top-level figure has been lined up to replace him, reckons Sky Formula 1 pundit Martin Brundle.as team principal after just less than four years in the job.
In the end, Binotto made his decision after feeling he did not have the total trust of Ferrari chairman John Elkann and CEO Benedetto Vigna. Speaking in London at the Guild of Motoring Writers’ Annual Awards dinner on Thursday night, Brundle conceded that Ferrari was always in a unique position as a team because of its following in Italy.
“They've lost their chief technical officer and their team principal, so unless they have got somebody very, very good to replace him straightaway, it all looks a little bit strange. But that's the nature of it.”Brundle joked that he ‘quite fancied the job himself’, before more seriously suggesting that perhaps the squad needed to look for someone who would not be as heavily under the spotlight of the Italian media as Binotto was.
