New Ferrari president Sergio Marchionne has reportedly expressed concerns about the Italian team’s 2015 project.<\/p>\n
Recently, Italy’s specialist Autosprint claimed wind tunnel figures of the project codenamed ‘666’ showed that the 2015 car may be no better than the F14-T.<\/p>\n
Now, the authoritative daily La Gazzetta dello Sport claims Marchionne, who recently took over from Luca di Montezemolo, reacted with alarm to the first concrete numbers emerging from the 2015 project.<\/p>\n
And “Is it this year’s car or next year’s?” he reportedly asked when he was shown sketches.<\/p>\n
The swords of Damocles have been falling all over Maranello in 2014, with Stefano Domenicali, Luca di Montezemolo, Luca Marmorini and now Fernando Alonso all departing.<\/p>\n
There are claims chief designer Nikolas Tombazis could be the next, while a cloud has been over Pat Fry’s job ever since James Allison assumed clear leadership in the technical realm.<\/p>\n
When asked about the 2015 car rumours, Fry said in Brazil: “There’s obviously a huge gap we need to catch up.\u00a0 I think things are progressing reasonably well.”<\/p>\n
And on the Tombazis rumour, a Ferrari spokesman told Spain’s Marca sports daily: “Tombazis is chief designer at Ferrari today and there is nothing more to say.”<\/p>\n
