Mazzola Criticises Ferrari President
January 2, 2026
Former Ferrari engineer Luigi Mazzola spoke sharply on the A Ruota Libera podcast, responding to comments made by Ferrari president John Elkann, who had criticised Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc.
According to Mazzola, Elkann has a limited understanding of Formula 1 and raised the issue at an inappropriate moment, when Ferrari could have focused on its successes in the World Endurance Championship rather than drawing attention to the team’s struggles in Formula 1.
