Fred Vasseur could cost one Christian Horner alternative the chance to become Ferrari team principal

Ferrari has publicly expressed official confidence in team principal Fred Vasseur amid renewed speculation regarding his future with the team. Rumors intensified after Christian Horner reportedly expressed interest in joining Ferrari, prompting reports that the Italian constructor is evaluating alternatives despite Vasseur holding a contract through 2027.

Potential replacements reportedly include Horner, Ferrari WEC boss Antonello Coletta, and deputy F1 team principal Jerome d'Ambrosio. However, d'Ambrosio's chances could reportedly be hindered by his appointment by Vasseur and his relative lack of senior executive experience if leadership changes occur.
