Vasseur hits out over media rumours over Ferrari future
Following reports in some Italian media outlets that Fred Vasseur’s job at Ferrari might be on the line, the Frenchman unleashed a stinging riposte.
“I don’t know the target, I don’t understand the target, perhaps it is to give shit to the team, but in this case, I don’t see the point.
“Perhaps it’s for them the only way to exist. This is probably more the reason. But it’s really hurting the team. It’s at one stage it’s a lack of focus and when you are fighting for the championship, every single detail makes a difference.
“And from the beginning of the weekend we are just speaking about this and if it’s their target to put the team in this situation, they reached their goal, but I think it’s really…it’s not like this that we’ll be able to win a championship and at least not with this kind of journalists around us.”
He later added: “Consider that it’s that we are speaking about people, we are not speaking about things, and I think everybody needs to have a bit of respect.”
