Ferrari Backs Vasseur Amid Rumors

Ferrari's leadership, represented by communications chief Maria Conti speaking on behalf of chairman John Elkann, made it clear that the team's position regarding Vasseur won't change. 'Ferrari has taken its choice. We have trust in Fred and his team. Nothing has changed,' Conti stated during the hastily arranged briefing. catcross.org

The press conference comes amid pressure on Vasseur after Ferrari went five World Championship rounds without a podium finish, an extremely rare occurrence for the team. Recent comments from former Red Bull boss Christian Horner, who suggested Ferrari would be the only team he'd work for without requiring an ownership stake, had also contributed to the rumors surrounding Vasseur's future.
