The Prancing Horse is experiencing a period of deep frustration, not only due to sporting results but also because of internal organizational issues that appear far from optimal. In 2026, Ferrari will need to prove its worth to the fans without making too many statements, but criticism from some media outlets shows no signs of abating.
Organizational challenges and the SF-25 development
In a recent article, we analyzed the mistakes made by the Maranello team in developing the SF-25. Beyond technical aspects, organizational problems are also concerning, as the team appears somewhat lost with uncertain leadership. Team Principal Frédéric Vasseur will need to prove his value in 2026. The Project 678 will depend heavily on the personnel chosen by the Team Principal, including Technical Director Loic Serra. Another failure like the one experienced this season would be unacceptable. Fans demand more, and their patience is running out. Matteo Bobbi shared his thoughts on AutoRacer.it during a live session.
Bobbi: “Communication this year was completely wrong”
“Communication this year was completely wrong. I hope the winter brings calm, serenity, and few words, and that answers come on track. After 18 years without wins, fans no longer have the patience to endure another winter of proclamations and another season of excuses. People have had enough. In March, we all saw what happened at Piazza Castello in Milan: we were not the ones making proclamations, but Lewis and Fred. The mistakes continue because, in Baku, through the words of your lead driver, the audience was prepared to watch the race as if Ferrari would win. So I would say that little has been learned on this front.”
We are the first to admit that it is very difficult to see the light at the end of this tunnel. Starting 2026 on the wrong foot would mean chasing once again, extending the negative streak that has persisted since 2008. Merchandise and events are merely distractions for fans of the Scuderia, who are starting to pay attention to more than just their passion. Blind love hurts when flaws go unnoticed. It is time for Ferrari to stop focusing solely on revenue and start winning again. History needs to be rewritten.
