    sad but true....but in all fairness, Allison just wanted to be closer to his kids after teh sudden death of his wife...so he could NOT be 100% dedicate his work in Maranello...too bad Ferrari does not have an office in England, otherwise Allison would still be working for us...

    oh well, i do hope that hiring Italianos will pay off in the end....
    So 2023 started off bad, but managed to claw back some lap time come end of the year. Lets hope SF24 will give us tifosi something to smile about.

    And that's why we should have a base in England.

    that's only speculation....no real concrete news yet...and if i were to choose between the two, i'd much rather have Allison; but given the situation and about his family, we all know that's not gonna happen and why he moved back to UK and why he may be going to Mercedes or maybe even red bull as they have bases in the UK

    Aaargh!! So frustrating! Bring on 2017 where hopefully things will go right for us, but this "Italian Team" idea doesnt give me much confidence that we will do much

    yeah, but all italian sports cars like the 458, 488, La Ferrari....etc, etc.....they all seem to be fast and reliable, NO??? and they are build and designed by italians....somewhat

    so we should have ALL the confidence going into 2017....i know i'll TRY...ha, ha...
