What was supposed to be a phenomenal season for Scuderia Ferrari has turned out to be a disaster. The Italian team has gone down from being the championship leader to fighting for P2 in the WCC with Mercedes. Amid all this, rumors arose that their team principal Mattia Binotto might be sacked soon. And then Ferrari responded.

After a long time, the team from Maranello managed to build a car that was worthy of a championship. However, they failed to live up to their expectations as Red Bull trumped over them and picked up both drivers as well as constructors’ championships. The management at Ferrari is unhappy about the whole scenario and there are possibilities that the Italian might have to leave his position.

In light of all this, Ferrari recently put out a statement that said, “In relation to speculation in certain media regarding Scuderia Ferrari Team Principal Mattia Binotto’s position, Ferrari states that these rumors are totally without foundation.”
