    Thank you he's got pedigree then

    Seems clear that Binotto jumped and now we are floundering around looking for a replacement...we will get a Elkann yes man, stock market is more important than sport.

    Binotto to Audi could it be true?

    Doubt it will be Fred he's no "yes man"

    It seems we try to replicate RB. Good sign, it's time to support Charles like RB supports Max. Elkann knows that these next steps are crucial, I am confident that we will find a way to get better.

    Carlos will cause grief @ Ferrari by winning podiums equal to Charles if he's given a car to drive as he sees fit for him. Remember given the chance @ Ferrari Charles to out Seb a 4x WDC ! No 1, 2 there and the results were, are great!

    Carlos misses ultimate speed to cause something. Good No.2 driver.

    Keep in mind one of Binotto's main jobs was to hold Carlos back enough to show Mick should get the seat. $2million in damage with just 2 cars was, is enough to know for sure Mick isn't what Ferrari needs . So now Carlos has a shot at showing what he can truly do for himself and the team. Left to race in peace @ Merc just look at Russell's results !! From 0 points in 2 1/2 years @ Williams to a win plus a great showing as to how good he is even with Lewis as his team mate. labeling Carlos as #2 before the season even starts cannot be very inspiring . Remember the $Millions are going to be paid anyway. We Ferrari fans need WDC, and WCC !!

    Holding Carlos back? What are you talking about? Did we watch the same races in 2022? If someone has been hold back it’s Charles. Carlos can send a prayer to Binotto that he was able to even win a race this year.

    Charles WDC 2022 was held back by Max and Max alone! I may be wrong but Carlos was designated #2 driver by Ferrari. Neither Carlos or Charles should have been or should start 2023 with #1 #2 status. Make a decision when each race is on and needed . Carlos spent the last season not at his best knowing he was unfairly held as #2 driver. Remember Charles never had to deal with Seb #1 him #2. Look how that went!!

    Charles had the speed, Carlos doesn’t. We don’t have to speak out about #1 or #2 status, but we have to make sure not to screw up Charles on the way, like it happened over and over again this year.

    The work on the Ferrari 2023 is gradually taking shape: - Defined chassis and suspensions. - Work in progress for greater aerodynamic efficiency. - Important investment on the front fins for more efficiency. - Floor bigger change.

    Not really that relevant I think but Charles has split up from his GF.

    With Mick and Binotto gone Carlos can and I'm sure will also be able to concentrate only on his driving job and being along with Charles up at the top as far as best drivers.

    Not sure what you are talking about. Carlos had all the support that he needed to show that he is as fast as Charles. He simply isn't, and that is ok.

    To be honest Brembo I think Carlos was favoured at quite a few races.

    Possibly one of the reasons Binotto lost support from Elkann.

    As long as Carlos and Charles can compete strongly against Max and GOAT Sr Lewis; 2023 will be a great F-1 season for Ferrari fans! The sprint races may well prove harmful as far a ruining results and plain viewing. Qualifying means plainly where a driver should line up for a race, not for a sprint start!!!!!

    Looks like Williams is in the same boat as Ferrari......exactly the same boat with no one else to fill the position at time of firing.

    Tis the season for firings of Team Principles.
    It's not how start but how you finish.
