\n More than 1,400 Formula 1 fans have shared their opinion on who should lead Ferrari after the 2026 season.\n<\/p>\n
\n Nearly 1,500 people voted in the poll, ran by Express Sport, which asked who should be in charge of the Scuderia from 2027.\n<\/p>\n
\n In recent weeks, there has been speculation about Vasseur’s position as Ferrari team principal due to the team’s inability to reclaim the F1 world championship.\n<\/p>\n
\n Vasseur admitted that his future was “out of his hands,” echoing the words of his predecessor Mattia Binotto before his exit.\n<\/p>\n
\n The poll revealed that fewer than half of the respondents believe that Ferrari should continue with Vasseur, who took over as team principal in 2023.\n<\/p>\n
\n Out of 1,457 votes, only 47 percent, or 684 people, believed Vasseur should continue leading the team.\n<\/p>\n
\n More than half of the voters preferred alternatives to Vasseur.\n<\/p>\n
\n A significant 38 percent, or 559 respondents, advocated for replacing Vasseur with Christian Horner.\n<\/p>\n

\n However, this figure does not represent a strong endorsement for the former Red Bull boss, as less than two-fifths of the participants thought Horner was the right person for the job in 2027.\n<\/p>\n
\n The remaining voters, 15 percent or 214 people, favoured replacing Vasseur with someone other than Horner.\n<\/p>\n
\n While few alternative candidates have been publicly named, Antonello Coletta, head of Ferrari’s World Endurance Championship and sportscar programmes, would be a strong option.\n<\/p>\n
\n The speculation around Vasseur’s position comes as Christian Horner has made a public statement expressing his interest in returning to F1 with Ferrari.\n<\/p>\n
\n Horner’s statement has added to the rumours surrounding Vasseur’s future.\n<\/p>\n
\n Ferrari’s CEO, Benedetto Vigna, attended the Malaysian race at the weekend, where the team initially struggled with its tyre strategy.\n<\/p>\n
\n Despite the early setback, Lewis Hamilton managed to recover from 18th position to finish on the podium, and Charles Leclerc finished fourth after being last at one point.\n<\/p>\n
\n Vigna used the occasion to explain why the team decided to publicly support Vasseur in the lead-up to the Sepang race.\n<\/p>\n
\n He said: “The reality is that Fred and the Scuderia are determined and focused on what needs to be done.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Do we need to improve the car? Of course! Our rivals have done better. But the laws of physics are immutable, which means it can be done better.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Vigna also clarified that rumours linking Horner to Vasseur’s role were never “verified”.\n<\/p>\n
\n He added that the public show of support for Vasseur had the intended effect, as there were fewer questions about the topic in Sepang compared to the previous weekend in Baku.\n<\/p>\n
