The rumors started circulating before the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix—Mattia Binotto was on his way out as Ferrari’s team principal. On Tuesday morning, Ferrari made his resignation official.
“With the regret that this entails, I have decided to conclude my collaboration with Ferrari,” Binotto said in the team’s statement. “I am leaving a company that I love, which I have been part of for 28 years, with the serenity that comes from the convinction [sic] that I have made every effort to achieve the objectives set. I leave a united and growing team. A strong team, ready, I’m sure, to achieve the highest goals, to which I wish all the best for the future. I think it is right to take this step at this time as hard as this decision has been for me. I would like to thank all the people at the Gestione Sportiva who have shared this journey with me, made up of difficulties but also of great satisfaction.”
