Ferrari’s sporting boss Laurent Mekies has played down hopes that all three high-profile academy driver members will be in Formula 1 next year. All three are within the top five in the Formula 2 standings, and all are linked with potential debuts for the Ferrari-linked Alfa Romeo and Haas teams for 2021. “Having so many promising young drivers makes us happy and gives us stability,” he is quoted by Speed Week. “We know of course that it won’t be possible to get three drivers into Formula 1 at the same time. But we have enough tools to train them further, be it in Formula 2 or in the role of test driver,” Mekies added.
