The visions between Binotto and Elkann had been completely different for many months. Not only was the entry of Jean Todt, welcome by the TP, rejected by the Management, but also a collaboration proposal with Luna Rossa , to try to do the same to Red Bull and Mercedes, i.e. be more aggressive in terms of budget caps and not by looking more at how the competitors work, and then win, 'intelligently'.

WTF IS ELKANN DOING?????
TP says hey I'd like an experienced advisor to help with things I am not that good at -> Elkann says no
TP says let's look at the other teams and maybe let's also be smart about certain things -> Elkann says no
Seriously, this article by Duchessa has destroyed virtually all my hopes and dreams for this team.
Binotto is not faultless, but this more and more sounds like Elkann is a problem too.
Like how do you look at the suggestion to do similar things that Mercedes and RB are doing, who have won a lot lately and then go no!
The vibe I'm getting seriously is Binotto actually trying to change things and constantly being told no.
And then when the results don't suddenly arrive because nothing was changed he still get's blamed.
Dude is gonna go to probably actually Audi and Ferrari are going to look so incredibly stupid.
