Ferrari chairman John Elkann has issued a statement to quash rumors of a potential leadership change, fully backing team principal Fred Vasseur.
"I want to express our full confidence in our Team Principal, Fred Vasseur, and in the work he is carrying out together with all our colleagues at Scuderia Ferrari – the mechanics, engineers, and drivers competing this weekend in Austin,"
Elkann's statement comes after speculation linked former Red Bull team boss Christian Horner with a move to Maranello, but Elkann's backing of Vasseur is unequivocal.
