With those figures no longer at Ferrari, Michael would’ve been well aware of the fate that befell great drivers before him like Prost, Mansell or Lauda.

Maybe I can lift the mystery about René Arnoux's falling out with Ferrari and his complaints about his car's lack of performance compared with teammate Michele Alboreto. Gerhard Berger had an interesting story to tell about his year 1987 at Ferrari with that exact teammate Alboreto. During the year he always lost straight line speed compared to Alboreto, sometimes 10 - 15 kph. John Barnard who was the constructor of the car revealed a hair-raising story how he was being approached by Count Zanon, a big supporter of Alboreto. Allegedly Zanon offered Barnard money for intentionally making Berger's car slower. Of course Barnard refused but an engineer for the motor mapping obviously hadn't resisted the offer. He was fired afterwards and suddenly Berger's car had as much power as Alboreto's. The whole episode is described in Berger's book "Grenzbereich" and it wouldn't be a stretch of imagination that something like this happened to Arnoux as well.

What Nigel Mansell said about being a no. 2 driver at Ferrari 30 years ago still stands. Case in point Sebastian Vettel in 2020.

[@shadowracer091]

Rumors say that Ferrari fired Arnoux because they found out that He had a surgery in his right leg without informing the team about it, thus allowing Ferrari to sack him for breaking the contract on the terms of illness or health.

The best vid in a long while, thank you 👍

[@madkhaliqfarhan]

I have never liked Ferrari since I was little and I'll never be a tifosi no matter how irresistible the team is! I was a fan of Sebastian Vettel when he was winning races with Red Bull but that totally changed when he joined Ferrari in 2015! Why are most F1 drivers so obsessed with the idea of joining Ferrari to improve their records? I want Ferrari's records to be broken by non-Ferrari drivers, like McLaren did at the 1993 Australian Grand Prix!

[@mikafinn1200]

I was a Ferrari fan since the 90s until the way they let Kimi go...since then, they have been a mess.

[@ToneKneeParaSocial]

Ferrari is the epitome of why the phrase "too big to fail" is so funny and and not indeed factual at all... Idk how you treat someone like Prost and Vettel like that. I love Ferrari but Ferrari is in its own way right now. Binotto does NOT seem to be helping.

You should include Every Ferrari driver ever

[@crystalracing4794]

Imagining think Jean Todt was THE problem at Ferrari. Alesi was never the sharpest knife in the drawer.

[@mondodimotori]

Even if Gilles Villeneuve didn't leave Ferrari, the backgrounds of his fatal crash in Zoelder could have led him to leave the team if he didn't passed on that terrible day. Also the short lived time at Ferrari of Ivan Capelli could make this list. Or the mentioned in the video Michele Alboreto.

[@theempires5]

His wife, Jo Anne said that Gilles would probably leave Ferrari at the end of 1982,given how he was treated there. Ferrari team principal at that time, Marco Picconini is the best man at Pironi's wedding, an event that Gilles wasn't even invited.That closeness means that there will be favourable decision in the direction of Didier. Once the trust is gone, then it's no good to continue at Maranello.

[@fintonmainz7845]

The commadore still held sway at Ferrari back then. He loved Gil (as he called him).

Title could be put too "Italian way" as they refer things too in Ferrari. Only legend they have is good drivers they just didn't listen well enough during years.

You should do one about Williams and Red Bull next, but you probably won't because they're British based teams.

Now one for McClaren and Wiiliams while we're at it

[@memeraven9938]

Prost was right.. At Ferrari, in 2 years time there can be good or bad.. Such extremes are not good for continuity and consistency. God knows how Vettel dealt with all this shit.. 2015 - 3 wins 2016 - 0 wins 2017 - 5 wins 2018 - 5 wins 2019 - 1 win 2020 - 0 wins either Ferrari can be good or bad.. they can't make a car capable of winning certain number of races each year.. RedBull: ultimate young driver's career destroyer Ferrari: Ultimate Champions' career destroyer.

Glenn Freeman is the best at these videos. His delivery is excellent.

[@JonBobben]

The hate is strong. If the Brits just bothered to dig for stories in their own teams. They won’t, of course, as they are all friends. Half of F1 journalists staff has worked for the English teams. The Alonso and Kimi stories are tabloid style exaggerated, and Alonso probably felt his relationship with Ron Dennis was quite a bit more awkward than his departure in 2014. Kimi shrugs it off, but The Race is deeply concerned for him how uneasy it most have been. The Vettel story must have been weird, but even weirder if he didn’t see it coming after being thrashed by the “rookie”. Awkward definitely, but more awkward than Ricciardo and Renault? Love your analysis and technical videos, The Race, but this is clickbait and shark food for Ferrari haters.

[@tejassharma5404]

6:11 is that James Allison?

[@RhoadsRafa]

What is more impressive is after all the bad blood in his last year with Ferrari , Se made a whole song in Italian for the team and performed it after his last race over the radio. He still.managed to show passion for the screwderia

[@rikudousennin4408]

[@danigonzalez4299]

Well Mansell not only "felt" the favour treatment of Prost by that happened. Mansell set pole in France. Prost asked to have his car for the next race, british gp. And Mansell came to the box and felt the car was different. Well they gave his car to Prost!!!!! So Mansell set up the car as higher as he could on qualy and runned to win in race time but he had gearbox issues and he had to retire. Then he decided he had enough of that sh*t. Also lets not forget when Prost landed at Ferrari Mansell really admired him (check his autobiography and the new one) and also Prost checked that there were some team crew from Williams (Mansell came from Williams) but those guys were signed before even Mansell arrived. So Prost thought this was a Mansell move to make the team his. While Mansell did not do that. So Prost made Ferrari sign many workers from McLaren to own the team. And oh boy if he did.

[@marco3943]

wow seb at #1 huh didn't expect that

It's lovely to see all these comments criticizing the most glorious and winning team in motorsport ever. You guys are hilarious

[@AlidelOro]

Seb could have stayed and stepped in Kimi's role when unable to beat Charles purely on pace. He didn't accept and moved on! Ferrari would not offer another year or two if you don't accept proposed role in the team. Simple!

[@ploppyjr2373]

Yea that’s not what happened but alright buddy

[@ioni6x]

so basically everybody who left Ferrari had an awkward split

[@johnmcnally8566]

There is more to F1 than the last 30 years. Jean Behra's departure says more about Enzo who did not bother to send flowers.

[@mich722]

Vettel brought it upon himself, crashed 4 times in a row in 2018 and threw the title away. 2019 was embarrassing and 2020 was a train wreck. Even at Aston Martin, in his first race he was crashing again in a situation which should not happen with an experienced driver.

[@gontran8638]

Regardless which famous drivers drive for Ferrair, the name Ferrari always comes first, not the drivers. The drivers are replaceable but not the Ferrari name. If the drivers did not deliver good results, off they go. It's business, not charity. I think the only driver Ferrari really appreciated and treasured was Schumacher which he rightly deserved after winning 5 titles for Ferrari. I am not a Ferrari fan but I do hope that they finally can be competitive again this year and beyond

[@frankbieser]

I get that James Allison left Ferrari in 2016 because of the death of his wife. But I've long wondered if Allison would have left Ferrari for Mercedes anyway to get away from Ferrari's dysfunction (and get to work with a team that was clearly going to win more championships).

[@MrRodzilla]

ferrari have won 1 non schumacher title since 1979, which was a lucky title needing hamilton to choke it away they came as close as you can possibly come to winning it but they should 100% regret the decision to go with raikkonen in 2007

[@SiVlog1989]

I would say that few drivers leave Ferrari on their own terms. Prost being fired in 1991 before the end of the season, Vettel being informed that he was going to be out of a drive at the end of 2020 before racing even began, both of these are incredibly awkward ways to leave Ferrari

[@sultanabran1]

i feel alonso would've won at least 2 more championship if he stayed on at ferrari
