"The rumors are also linked to the attention there is on Ferrari. When they started circulating I spoke to President Elkann and from there the press release you know was born, in which we underlined that they were completely unfounded. I repeat, when we are at Ferrari, rumors are inevitable due to the great attention that surrounds the team".
So Mattia Binotto, Ferrari team principal, at a press conference in Abu Dhabi, reiterates that the rumors circulating on the hypothesis of replacing him with Vasseur are unfounded.
"Will I be Ferrari's team principal in 2023? It's not up to me to decide, but I'm calm," he adds.
