the main reason I didn’t is my first marriage failed for various reasons but probably predominantly because I went off to Indie Cars so I was living in the States during the season my relatively newly readed wife came out with me to start with really didn’t like living in America and went back and that puts a strain on our marriage that we never really recovered from to be perfectly honest 93 I’d one year into my second marriage I didn’t want to make that same mistake again were Ferrari prepared to do a John Barnard deal and have you design from the UK I never asked the question I I don’t believe I don’t believe it so I never asked I think if you if you’re going to do it forar as an Italian team it having the idea of having a a research and Design Center which is completely different place to the race team I know we have a sister team that does that but I I don’t believe in the concept

    1. Ferrari is just a logo and a history, is not associated anywhere with performance,glory and pride.
      They need professional leaders at the right place, like Jean Todt, Ross Brawn, Mattia Binotto(but working in engine department),Rory Byrne,Marko Fainello,Paollo Martinelli and a good drivers lineup, a nr 1 driver like Michael Schumacher and a nr 2 driver like Rubens Barrichello.
      The team from 2025 has already problems, like two nr 1 drivers(Leclerc and Hamilton and none of them will listen team orders so if they ll attack any title, they will fight each other) and even they have the strongest engine, they still suffer from low reliability or an aerodynamics concept that destroys the tyres… about team s clown race strategy there s nothing to be said.

    2. And better should'nt. If italians could get god on their team…than they only want to know that guy after he took course in Italian. Not that they learn english. XD MAn its gonna be a comedy for us, yet hell for newey. Dont know how sado this specialist dude is…but expect weirdo's at the top man.

    3. No team should keep thier reputation on their past only and Ferrari has only the past left in their favour.
      Times changed and Ferrari have stayed the same mob family team since 50s and it won't work any more. Schumacher/Todt era was a glitch in the Matrix and probably won't happen any time soon

    4. trust me, the first wife might have not liked living in the shithole that the us is and i understand why, but who wouldn’t wanna move from the uk to italy😅

    5. If he wants to leave Red Bull because of the Horner vs Mateschitz Jr power war, his only F1 destination is Mercedes. From Milton Keynes (Red Bull), Brackley (Mercedes) is just 20 miles away, Maranello (Ferrari) is 960 miles away.

    6. I’m not convinced the reason behind his desire to leave if it is actually true is not just because of the things going on at redbull. Newey recently said they have extracted most of what they can from the redbull and he also said if new regulations offer enough scope for movement then he is interested. He said these new regulations interest him. I feel he see a new challenge and or chapter in his career by moving to a new team. I personally think he will go to Ferrari because they offer him two out of his desired missed opportunities of who he hasn’t worked with before. Anyway until something is confirmed it’s all speculation at best.
