In the last case it will be named a Glickenhaus, not a Ferrari.

Both of your points hold truth in my eyes. Ferrari is indeed desperate to win the F1 championship with Alonso driving. But they also have a streetcar division, which is not compromising their F1 efforts. I think that Ferrari is more than capable of developing a LMP1 car if they wish to do so, without jeopardising the F1 result.

I hope Ferrari stays away from Le Mans, apart from their GT programme. I fear they will pull the blanket too much to their side of the bed, and that the ACO will let them do that, just like the FIA does.
