For sale? This rumor might not be too far from the truth. How many times we have singled out small things that were pointing into that direction? - New boss (not as enthusiastic into F1 as his predecessor) - Auto market is down - Hamilton allegedly asked for 60 MM per season? No kidding. It's not hard to imagine that at all! That's normal, when news is, that your trophy team didn't win a race, and wining turns into big yawn. Victims of their own success? What an empty sounding cliche, but so apt in this situation. There is another problem, namely, who has money to buy it? Another actor from FIRE economy perhaps? - but - Sale of the team is not yet confirmed.

Two days? Looks like this switch was then some time in making. I am not sure that I understand reason for delay of the announcement, that Vettel will be leaving team end of this season. With some regret and relieve at the same time, to avoid any misunderstanding in the future, Ferrari is not anymore "my team". Sebastian is leaving from Maranello, and so am I. Mind you, I still love Italy. Music, food, vine, leather goods, craftsmanship, history. That will never leave me.
