The Ferrari CEO reflects on the rash of rumours and the need to distinguish facts from speculation. He recalls reading about alleged tensions with Fred Vasseur while having dinner with him and explains why, in a scenario amplified by social media, it is sometimes necessary to intervene publicly to stop the noise. As for the situation on track, no excuses: “Our rivals have done a better job”.
Benedetto Vigna has a very precise approach when faced with a problem: start with the facts. That is down to his scientific background, but it is also a philosophy that the Ferrari CEO applies to the management of the company. Observe, verify and only then draw conclusions.
