From the Pulpit
Jean Todt has long been mooted as having the potential to step into the role of FIA president when Max Mosley stands down in 2009. And according to Matt Bishop, the Frenchman may find himself getting support from unexpected quarters...
"They [Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa] are the drivers for the present and the future of Ferrari. It's up to us to give them a good car." So said Ferrari's team principal, Jean Todt, on Sunday June 24, and he should know.
But the fact that, only seven races into a Formula One season that Todt's team started with an imperious win from pole position (with fastest lap by a mile thrown in for good measure), he should have been forced to make such a remark, to quell speculation that the position of Raikkonen, the winner of that first race, wasn't safe, is eloquent verification, that all isn't absolutely tickety-boo at the Scuderia.
