Overview

• Luca di Montezemolo said it is "sad to see a Ferrari without a leader" and claimed the team lacks a strong, determined soul.
• He described team principal Fred Vasseur as "a lonely man" and argued that repeated changes have eroded stability.
• Montezemolo called the departure of Mattia Binotto a mistake and warned against pre‑race hype that inflates expectations without results.
• Ferrari has not won this season; Lewis Hamilton is sixth without a podium, while Charles Leclerc’s podiums have come off strong qualifying.
• Despite drivers rallying around Vasseur and his role being secured earlier in the year, Montezemolo’s criticism has sharpened scrutiny of Ferrari’s structure and its duty to tifosi.
