Jun.15 (GMM) Frederic Vasseur has continued his tirade towards what he insists are trouble-making Method 1 journalists.
Whereas he admits his three-year contract is expiring, the 57-year-old touched down in Montreal this week amid a firestorm of hypothesis about his future as Ferrari workforce boss.
Vasseur had already slammed the matching reviews in La Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere della Sera, whereas Corriere dello Sport claims Lewis Hamilton was livid in Barcelona when setup modifications have been made to his automobile with out his information.
“The one doable rationalization is that they’re both journalists who wish to make a reputation for themselves or they’re making an attempt to disrupt the workforce. Or possibly each,” he instructed Canal Plus on Saturday.
“Perhaps it’s the one approach for the media to exist, with these clicks. But it surely actually damages the workforce. From the beginning of the weekend, it’s all about this.”
Vasseur says he’s so offended as a result of the rumours aren’t all about him.
“If you throw names on the market, if you invent recruitments that by no means existed, if you say that Charles (Leclerc) goes to hitch Mercedes subsequent yr…” he stated.
“In any case, in the event that they wish to be supporters or at the very least near the workforce, it’s a failure. We have now to ask ourselves the proper questions if Ferrari hasn’t gained for years.
“We’ve modified the workforce principal, we’ve modified drivers, we’ve modified nearly all the things. Besides one factor.”
Vasseur didn’t say what that ‘one factor’ is, however he could also be referring to himself.
“My place is fragile by definition,” stated the Frenchman, who was appointed workforce boss in 2023. “It’s like a soccer coach.
“We all know that if you do that job, whether or not at Ferrari or elsewhere, you’re uncovered. I believe there are, on common, three workforce managers who change per season. I didn’t come to Ferrari pondering I’d keep for all times.
“I attempt to develop the workforce, to make it progress, to construct one thing. However we’re not going to win a championship this manner. Actually not with these sorts of journalists round us.”
