Heartbreak within the F1 community has Ferrari don’t announce Jean Todt

Earlier Saward had tweeted about Ferrari making a huge announcement. Many thought it would be Todt returning to the team as he had stepped down from the role of the president of the FIA. However, according to his latest blog, Saward talks about an aspect that would break many hearts of the Ferrari fan base.

A source within Ferrari advised him to, “Go easy on the JT stories.” Additionally, the source said, “I don’t think it is going to happen. If you’d ask me before the Christmas break, I’d have said 100 percent, it’s happening, but things have changed. I don’t know why – and I don’t think the deal is going to happen.”

Mattia Binotto gives hints on how Ferrari is getting ready for the 2022 season

In 2020, the Italian team had a horrible year as they finished sixth in the teams’ standings. However, the following season they bounced back, achieving a third-place finish in the championship. With the 2022 season just a few months away team principal, Mattia Binotto is optimistic for the forthcoming season.

As quoted from Motorsport.com, “If I look at the 2022 car, and the 2022 power unit, believe me there is a lot of innovation in it. I think that the way that the entire engineering team has faced the new design, the new project, and the 2022 regulations, which were a big discontinuity, was certainly with a more open mind than before.”

“I can myself measure it by looking at the car itself, the way it’s progressing, and certainly with the amount of innovation we put in it,” he concluded.
