Former Ferrari president questions leadership following Dutch Grand Prix team orders

Former Ferrari president Luca Cordero di Montezemolo has publicly questioned the level of institutional support for current team principal Fred Vasseur. The criticism follows the Scuderia's management of Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc during the Dutch Grand Prix. Hamilton failed to challenge for a podium position after the team delayed separating the two cars through strategic calls. Former Formula 1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya also weighed in, suggesting that Leclerc undermined team authority by ignoring an instruction to pit ahead of his teammate. While Montoya noted that tension between drivers is common, he indicated that Ferrari missed an opportunity to manage the pair effectively. Ferrari now shifts its focus to the upcoming home race at Monza while facing internal scrutiny regarding how such operational decisions are handled.
