Scuderia Ferrari is taking advantage of the tumultuous moment in Formula 1 to make a series of acquisitions, including Toto Wolff’s right-hand man, who is arriving in Maranello. The Red Bull scandal has only accelerated a movement that began with the signing of Lewis Hamilton with the Scuderia. The Italian team has now set its sights on Jerome D’Ambrosio, effectively the right-hand man and deputy of Toto Wolff at Mercedes.
There’s never a dull moment in Formula 1. The rumors and news, even the most shocking, are now countless. Starting with the decision of Lewis Hamilton, who will be wearing Ferrari Red from 2025, everything could change in the world’s fastest paddock. In addition to monitoring movements at Milton Keynes, it will be interesting to see and assess the next moves of the Prancing Horse.
In recent days, rumors of an agreement between Maranello and Jerome D’Ambrosio have become more persistent. Reported by RacingNews365, the former Formula 1 and Formula E driver is now a step away from Ferrari. Just a year into his tenure at Brackley, Jerome D’Ambrosio replaced Toto Wolff at the helm of the team in Qatar and Japan, when the Austrian was stopped by health issues.
“At the moment he is still with us,” Toto Wolff explained, “The situation arose for personal reasons and he is evaluating the options available to him. I think these are things he should talk to us about, but it’s all good. We’ll see what happens.” – the Mercedes boss explained.
Jerome D’Ambrosio’s role in Ferrari is expected to be as head of the FDA. During his time at Mercedes, he indeed focused on the development of young drivers. The position is currently held by Jock Clear, but the Briton is also involved on the track with the F1 team. D’Ambrosio’s arrival would provide stable leadership to the Ferrari Academy.
