For the first time since 1984, Ferrari failed to get even a single car into Q3 at Monza. Their struggles in qualifying only amplified the focus on the shambolic season they are having.

The pressure on the Scuderia has been mounting for a long time now, with many fans demanding Team Principal Mattia Binotto’s head.

However, Louis Camilleri, CEO of Ferrari, is not ready to budge on his decision and is sold on giving Binotto his complete and seemingly undying support.

He, instead, wants to change the team’s policy in regard to giving people a proper chance to succeed rather than firing them at the drop of a hat.

Camilleri, who himself has only been in the role of CEO for a year and a half, said that he wanted to put a stop to the “revolving door atmosphere” at Ferrari. He firmly believes that Binotto is the right man to lead the Scuderia forward.

In an interview with the New York Times, he said(via Formula1.com), “I have total confidence in Mattia Binotto and the team. The results aren’t there to prove what I am saying but these things take time. Regretfully in the past, there has been too much pressure and a history of letting people go. And I’m putting a stop to that.”

Camilleri wants to ensure that there is a sense of stability in the team. He is well aware of the intense pressure that rests on the team’s shoulders, courtesy of the fans and the Italian media, but “Calling for heads to roll” is not the solution.

Ferrari CEO gives a damning verdict for the team’s hopes in 2021

Camilleri was very straightforward and honest in admitting that next year won’t be any different from 2020. He  simply said, “The situation cannot improve in 2021.” 

However, Camilleri was far more optimistic about the Prancing Stallion’s chances come 2022. “For 2022, the new regulations come into play. And every time there has been a huge revolution in terms of the technical framework, it can change the pecking order.
