Ferrari are now in a position where they have lost Santander backing, and supply a team who will be backed by one of their remaining sponsors. The pressure is on them to deliver, because otherwise FIAT Chrysler could take their backing elsewhere and take a punt on a different engine supplier for the next set of regs (or even build their own)?
When did Ferrari lose their backing from Santander?

No, we don't know that.

In fact, Fiat Chrysler (FCA) announced in 2014 that they would be spinning off Ferrari, which they commenced in 2015, completing the IPO in early 2016. It is now a completely separate company to FCA, with it's shares listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

The only connection between FCA and Ferrari is that they share the same chairman, Marchionne.

Just thinking out loud...could Alfa be one of the next FIAT assets Marchionne plans to spin off?

worked incredibly well for Ferrari and Marchionne likes to swing things so why not use F1 success to leverage another IPOs?

A little simplistic, Mike, bearing in mind that the Agnelli family essentially own most of FIAT (only fair, since they founded it), and most of the Ferrari shares went to Fiat shareholders.......

I'll enjoy seeing Alfa back in the sport of only in...name..and if only for..cynical political purposes.

Still, it'd be nice to see the logo in F1.

Doesn’t Philip Morris own the marketing rights to the car, for onsale?

The financial gap sits with PM if that is the case, not impacting Ferrari at all...

Not wanting to digress from the thread, I couldn't find anything on the marketing rights, though Philip Morris renewed their sponsorship of Ferrari in September this year.

Actually, I thought the situation was different as of 2016.
Only going off Wikipedia information, the details given are that as part of the FIAT reorganisation, FIAT Chrysler Automobile (FCA) broke off ownership of Ferrari.

'The separation began in October 2015 with a restructuring that established Ferrari N.V. (a company incorporated in the Netherlands) as the new holding company of the Ferrari group and the subsequent sale by FCA of 10% of the shares in an IPO and concurrent listing of common shares on the New York Stock Exchange. Through the remaining steps of the separation, FCA's interest in Ferrari's business was distributed to shareholders of FCA, with 10% continuing to be owned by Piero Ferrari. The spin-off was completed on 3 January 2016.'


I understand that Marchione is the CEO of both Ferrari and FCA, and that there may be a lot of common shareholders, but legally they are two separate companies with entirely different ownership.

How that affects the topic of this thread, I am unsure. I would imagine though that owners of FCA shares (and subsequently those with a stake in Alfa-Romeo-Sauber) are not by default automatically concerned with Ferrari's own performance.
Alfa-Romeo-Sauber may however be Marchione's foothold in F1 though if he goes ahead with the threat to take Ferrari elsewhere. And as a title sponsor, without actually supplying much in the way of components, it makes sense for Alfa-Romeo.

Richard, don't forget that that article was written in 2014, and included a lot of speculation.

Today, the Agnelli family's holding through their investment vehicle is down to 25.8% of Ferrari NV Race. They have been selling off their shares very gently since the IPO from the original, or so I believe, 33%.

Life's too short to get into more delving, and anyway, who knows who really owns all the shares when a lot of them are held by nominees on behalf of the beneficial owners.

In addition to Alfa Romeo-Sauber it seems that now we could also have Maserati-Haas next year. All cars with Ferrari engines.

http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/maserat...to-formula-one

My question is:
How different or how similar could this Alfa Romeo-Sauber or Maserati-Haas be on the Ferrari SF18-H?
How far do the regulations allow them to get closer?
6 Ferraris in the grid could be very useful to subtract points to Hamilton on the tracks that the Ferrari is competitive as it happened several times this year.

In that mood, F1 is copying MotoGP. Despite each team hast to build their own chassis, is the engine manufacturer works team and the engine manufacturer satellite teams.
Ferrari, with the Sauber-Alfa and Haas-Maserati is just copying RBR with Toro Rosso or Honda with Super Aguri.

Is this Ferrari trying to muddy the waters so that they can provide substandard power units to satellite teams in direct contradiction to the FIA edict that all PUs must be equal in all respects!
All out power units are identical, but these are those of other manufacturers, and they don't carry the premium price of the Ferrari units.

The PUs will not change their denomination, they will continue to be called Ferrari.
Besides, what does Ferrari win with this?
There were already 2 Sauber and 2 Haas this year that were crawling on the track and this situation did not serve to Ferrari in this way.
Ferrari need a lot of competitive cars in the way to subtract points Hamilton in the tracks where the Ferrari goes very well.

I am far from sure that it will serve Maserati well to re-enter F1 by moving into what seems to be a third-rate (or at least a rather unproven) team.

It may however serve the interests of Ferrari to have the votes of three engine manufacturers in there pocket if that is what the next engine supply deal and specifications are based on. Given that the FIA is just gagging to bring more engine / auto manufacturers into F1.

You would have imagined that with Haas being American coupled with Liberty's aim to have more US races, that FCA would have out Chrysler on the cars?

I can’t imagine that FCA would focus just on the American market and pick one of the US brands. If the US was F1 crazy it might make sense, but we are not. So it would be a wasted marketing opportunity when correctly viewed as a global series. Also, IMHO, there is not a natural US centric brand that is performance centric in the list of FCA brands. Chrysler just puts the SRT label on any product that is a performance version regardless of brand (Jeep, Dodge, etc.)

However it might be hilarious to have the Ferrari rebadged as a Jeep!

The DFV was a bit more than just a re-badging exercise. When Colin Chapman approached Keith Duckworth and Mike Costin to produce a 3 litre F1 engine, they needed development budget of £100,000, so Chapman went to Ford, with whom he had previously worked when producing the Lotus Cortina.
