“Roberto Boccafogli arrives at Ferrari instead of Adrian Newey”- this was the headline of Italian motorsport journalist and Ferrari insder Leo Turrini for his latest article on the quotidiano.net blog. The reference is to the imminent arrival at Maranello of the former executive from Fininvest, Rai, and Pirelli, in the role of the new communication advisor for the Italian team.
Leo Turrini’s announcement
“Since Adrian Newey has no intention of setting foot in Maranello, let’s settle for Roberto Boccafogli.
(There’s nothing to be done: certain things just come out really well for me, huh),” Leo Turrini announces with a hint of irony but without malice towards the well-known Italian executive Roberto Boccafogli, who joins Ferrari as Communications Advisor and of course has tasks and responsibilities completely different from Adrian Newey.
He then adds: “Seriously. The Ferrari car for the Grand Prix race is not working. Qualified technicians will certainly come. In the meantime, my old friend Bob Boccafogli, from Autosprint, with experiences at Fininvest, Rai, and Pirelli, becomes a consultant for the racing department’s communication. Very well. Since we were young together and he has undeniably aged better than me.”

Finally, he concludes with a direct provocation to the Scuderia: “Well, I entrust him with an immediate task. Sorry, Bob. Could you let us know what happened, if anything happened, with Charles Leclerc’s car on Saturday in Barcelona? Is it the fourth secret of Fatima? Does the Rubik’s Cube have anything to do with it? Why not Adrian Newey and why you?” – Leo Turrini concluded his article.
