now that Jean Todt ('affectionately' known as JT ) is going and will be replaced by Stefano Domenicali, so whts' the future for Ferrari now?.
As I see it JT s departure will be no loss to the sport, and I am not a Ferrari supporter in any way, so I dont care if the team does go backwards, but is it likely? I dont think that the teams performance will depend upon JTs departure but how good SD will be in his place. From the sports point of view SD will be an improvement I think.
Ferrari is either loved or hated, when (if) they cease to be winners they will lose many 'fans' who will transfer aliegence to another team (as is the case, probably, to a lesser extent , with any team) but they will still be left with the haters. I dont think that any other team has so many people who actively dislike the team. I was involved in the sport during the 60s & 70s and Ferrari were disliked by many in those days too. Why is that?

Strive to be fast, strive to be first but, above all, strive to be alive.
