Ferrari’s Frustrating Season: Vasseur Under Fire from F1 Legend Minardi!

The world of Formula 1 is buzzing as the dust settles on yet another disappointing season for Ferrari. With the Scuderia failing to clinch a single victory and plummeting from second to fourth in the Constructors’ Championship, the pressure is mounting on team principal Frederic Vasseur, who has been at the helm since January 2023. This catastrophic performance has ignited fierce criticism, and now, the spotlight is on Vasseur like never before!

As murmurs of discontent echo through the paddock, Ferrari’s star driver Charles Leclerc has come to Vasseur’s defense, urging critics to give the Frenchman more time. However, the stakes are high: if the 2026 car doesn’t deliver the speed and competitiveness that fans demand, excuses will be in short supply. The clock is ticking, and the heat is on!

Enter Gian Carlo Minardi, a revered figure in the Italian motorsport scene and founder of a team that graced the F1 grid from 1985 to 2005. In an explosive commentary for the *Quotidiano Sportivo*, Minardi didn’t hold back as he laid out his advice for Vasseur: “If I were him, I would finally learn Italian. In a competitive work environment, empathy can be as valuable, if not more, than a pay rise!” His words are a sharp reminder that communication is key in a team that is struggling under the weight of expectations.

But that’s not all! Minardi also took aim at Vasseur’s public statements, questioning his credibility. “For months, he assured us that the team was diligently working on the SF-25 to enhance its performance. Yet, come autumn, he revealed that they had decided back in April to halt development in favor of focusing entirely on 2026. Doesn’t that seem a bit contradictory?” The former F1 team owner’s pointed critique raises eyebrows and showcases the growing discontent among fans and experts alike.

As Ferrari grapples with its identity and struggles to regain its former glory, the question remains: can Vasseur turn this ship around? With the 2026 season on the horizon, the pressure is mounting, and the path to redemption is fraught with challenges. Will the Scuderia rise from the ashes, or will it continue to languish in mediocrity? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: the eyes of the racing world are firmly fixed on Maranello.
