Future of Ferrari

At Ferrari, Binotto looks beyond just this year and next year. The team boss wants to lay a good foundation and that requires two good drivers: "We’re looking not only for a victory, but for a long cycle, creating solid foundations, and when you’re trying to create solid foundations and basing it on a young team, not only engineers, technicians but drivers, it’s the choice", concludes the Italian.
