Leo Turrini questions Ferrari leadership: John Elkann and Benedetto Vigna “know nothing about F1” 3.

Italian journalist Leo Turrini has criticized Ferrari's top leadership, asserting that chairman John Elkann and chief executive Benedetto Vigna know nothing about Formula 1. Turrini argues that this disconnect creates a leadership vacuum above team principal Frédéric Vasseur, contrasting the current executive setup with past eras under presidents Luca di Montezemolo and Sergio Marchionne, who were directly involved and visible in racing operations.

According to the article, Turrini believes Vasseur lacks experienced racing figures above him when requesting key investments or technical personnel. With vice-chairman Piero Ferrari now 81 years old, the report highlights broader concerns that Ferrari's sporting leadership remains structurally disconnected from the corporate demands of its publicly listed parent organization.
