di Montezemolo is not only the director of Ferrari, he is also one of the fiercest opponents of the current course of the Formula 1 and shows that once again clearly hear.

Ferrari was for many years one of the most dominant teams ever in Formula 1. In the Schumi-era harkten the Italians one after the other title. It was in the time that the money, the fuel and the tires are not on could. A time that we must soon forgotten, as the current policy makers is, because the sport should be cleaner and most importantly cheaper.

This season was a first step with the introduction of the 1.6-litre turbocharged engines. That are not only relatively clean, but also make a lot less noise. For Di Montezemolo reason for the current drivers to compare with taxi-drivers, since the races in his eyes nothing more with Formula 1.

The Italian sees a king’s class without the shine, so let him know in an interview with Focus. “The drivers need constant fuel and tyre saving and no time as hard as they want. No spectator will understand why she always gas take, because the rules are far too complex.”

The competitions attract despite the criticism of Di Montezemolo still a lot of audience, that in his eyes is not long. “In the past, went to the best driver in the best car. In my opinion it is quite simple: teams need to at least decide how much fuel and tyres they want to use. If no one there doing anything about it, then I’ll do it myself. That is my duty.”
