The Ferrari Formula 1 team has established a new ‘performance𒐪 development department’ as part of a restructure to its technical department following a difficult start to the 2020 ꦯseason.

Ferrari has endured a tough openi♏ng three rounds to the delayed 2020 campaign, with its new SF1000 proving to bꦆe well off the pace of the  team’s rivals.

The Italian outfit has managed just a single podium from the first races in Austria and Hungary and subsequ🍨ently sits fifth in the constr🔯uctors’ championship having scored just 27 points so far.

Earlier this week, Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto made it clear that168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: sackingꦆ peopꦕle is not what his team needs to turn its fortunes around aওmid speculation in Italian media that his position could be under threat.

Ferrari says the changes to꧋ its technical department have been made in order to “render it more effective and assur🀅e a more holistic emphasis on performance development”.

Enrico Cardile will step up⛎ from his previous role as Head of Aerodynami💖cs and Vehicle Project manager to head up the new performance department.

"As hinted at a few days ago, we are making changes to the technical side of the organisation so as to speed up the design and developꦦment on the c꧋ar performance front,” Binotto said.

“A change of direction was needed to define clear lines of responsibility and 💃working processes, while reaffirming the company’s faith in its technical talent pool.

“The department run by Enri🐭co Cardile will be able to count on the experience of Rory Byrne and established engineers such as David Sanchez. It will be the cornerstone of the♚ car’s development.

“We believe Ferrari personnel are of the highest level and we have nothing to envy about our main competitors in this respect, but we had to make a decisive change, raising the bar in terms of the responsibilities of the department h🥃eads.

“We have said it several times, but it’s worth repeating: we have started to lay the foundations of a process which should lead to a new and end🐻uring winning cycle,” he added.

“It will take some time and we will suffer setbacks like the one we are experiencing right now in 🍃terms of results and performance.

“However, ☂we must re♒act to these shortcomings with strength and determination to get back to being at the very top of this sport as soon as possible. This is what we all want and what our fans all over the world expect of us”.

Ferrari’s other main areas will remain unchanged, with Enrico Gualtieri in charge of the power unit, Laurent Mekies as sporting director and Simone Re🍌sta continuing to lead the chassis engineering department.
