F1 fan survey - Ferrari down to 3rd most popular team

[Alonsomaniac]

The ranking doesn't say a lot.
Ferrari's popularity has been on a rather constant high level for many , many years now.
Other teams have peaks in popularity when they perform well, and can at that moment be more popular than Ferrari, but the moment the performance drops, their popularity drops even harder.
Ferrari fans are loyal fans. They cheer when Ferrari performs well, they hurt when not. But they do not leave.
If you take the average popularity over , let's say, 10 years or 25 years, Ferrari is always on top.

You're right, a real Ferrari tifoso is in for the long haul, win or lose, cheering or hurting, so this ranking is irrelevant to me.

Speaking as a Norwich City fan, a true fan deals with the lows as well as the highs. Sadly, neither of 'my' teams are enjoying much of the highs right now!

Agreed.

Same with Williams in the early 90's and then Mclaren.

I find it hard to believe Mclaren is so popular at the moment though, mostly still seeing massive amounts of red flags at circuits and Verstappen/Red Bull flags with a bit of Mercedes, depending on the circuits.

I stay by my statement that Ferrari is the only team always driving in front of home crowd!

I’ve been to many races over the years and have noticed a trend; their are Ferrari fans and fans of the current winning team. The Ferrari fans are always there, however most others just move to the dominant team at that time. In Red Bull’s reign there were plenty of RB fans, once they started loosing and Merc started winning, the fans just moved over to Merc. It’s easy to root for the best team, which is why a lot of new fans root for Merc/Hamilton…no one wants to support a team in tough times. That is what makes a true Ferrari fan different, we are here for both good times and bad.

Our team Ferrari @ 9 WDCs, !6 WCCs, still are and will be for a long time #1 F-1 team. They need to add a few more ASAP just to be safe . I still believe every F-1 drivers dream is to have driven for Ferrari! Felipe and Rubens are a perfect example.
