What is Ferrari lacking this year?

Ferrari started 2016 with high hopes and a new design philosophy, but has lost ground and now its technical director. What's gone wrong, and who can turn things around?

Having reached a nadir in 2014, failing to win a race for the first time since 1993, Ferrari went through a restructure and has been on the rise over the past two seasons. This year was predicted to be the one when it would be back on terms with its rivals, pushing for wins and a championship.

Yet Ferrari has not reached Mercedes' levels of performance in 2016, and with company president Sergio Marchionne demanding results, the pressure is yet again building at Maranello.
