The Ferrari F1 team is essentially a national team.
The press dissect every strategic decision made during a race.
If Ferrari wins then they are heros...if they lose (too often) then someone is for the chop.
The team managers job is a proper poisoned chalice.
I preface this by saying I obviously don't know him or F1 that in depth for that matter. But, from a fairly long time fans perspective (me/mine/others) they look pretty bad in all facets. It isn't just the losing, but the way they are losing. Bad pit stops, terrible strategy and implementation of strategies on top of a bad car. The way they've handled the VET situation etc etc. It just looks like total chaos and that usually falls on the coach/principle no matter what sport it is.
