Ferrari's demise? (again)

In 1994 Todt arrived to a semi chaotic Ferrari that had had two disastrous seasons after the Prost's crisis. In 1996 Schumacher and his Benettton group arrived. The following years are a well-known history, a legendary history, in fact.

In 2007, Schuey retires and virtually his group as well retires. In 2008 Todt leaves the direct operation of the team.

Before Todt-Schuey, Ferrari was in a long state of relative mediocrity, except Prost's blip. After the departure of that ultra successful group, Ferrari, *could* be in a phase of coming back to a secondary status. In fact, these last seasons the team seems precisely this way.

That intro is not to expose my opinion, not at all. Its purpose is to present the graph about Ferrari's performance since Alboreto's title bid season (1985). The values are the fraction of team points respecting the maximum possible points in the season. I have represented a horizontal line at level 0.5 taht, approximately, can mean the cut line for a very successful team.

Is Ferrari "condemned" to a secondary role (again)?
