Domenicali: Words count for nothing

[vcs316]

25 November 2013 – Stefano Domenicali says actions will speak louder than words in Ferrari's quest to return to the front of the Formula 1 grid next season.

Although it started brightly, claiming two victories in the first five races, the Maranello-based outfit has ultimately endured another challenging campaign, with third in the Constructors' standings the outcome.

But with a series of staff changes and the clean sheet of next year's regulation overhaul, Domenicali is determined to make amends, making clear that only the work carried out at the team's factory is of importance.

"This has to be the impetus to prepare for next season as well as possible and our engineers are aware of the results we want to obtain," said Domenicali after the Brazilian Grand Prix, where Fernando Alonso recorded a podium and Felipe Massa finished seventh.

"The assessment of this season just ended cannot be positive, because after a competitive start, we had a second half that did not live up to our standards, as I have said many times before.

"Now words count for nothing, but only the work we must do back home: on this topic, I think all the decisions we have taken and the changes we made are taking us in the right direction to tackle next season in the best way possible."

Ferrari missed out on second position to Mercedes by just six points.

Do we count: Montreal, Silverstone, Nuerburgring and Hungary to the second half?

"Now words count for nothing, but only the work we must do back home"

I'm quietly confident that there was a mirror when he said those words, and he was looking straight into it.

Something is so wrong with Ferrari's PR people, so wrong.

They should just shut up and get on with the job in hand, seems to me that every time someone opens their mouth, the same old rhetoric comes out, so best just button it and design a competitive car!

Exactly. I nearly spit my beverage over my computer when I read the title.

I nearly wrote "Too bad. If words were paid at 1 cent each, Domenicali would be a billionaire", but thought better of it.
