F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali has backed current Ferrari team boss Mattia Binotto over claims that heads should be rolling at Maranello. 2016 world champion Nico Rosberg slammed the Italian team after Zandvoort, insisting that even Formula 2 and Formula 3 teams have handled race strategy and pitstops better than Ferrari in 2022 so far. “It is easy to criticise from both inside and out,” Domenicali, who headed Ferrari until he resigned under pressure in early 2014. “But I believe that at the moment all Ferrari people must support Mattia Binotto,” he insisted. However, Ferrari’s problems this year with reliability as well as driver, strategy and pitstop mistakes have given Max Verstappen and Red Bull the clear air to utterly dominate.
