Ferrari Boss Vasseur Hands over to D'Ambrosio for Austrian GP

  • Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur missed the Austrian Grand Prix on June 29, 2025, at the Red Bull Ring due to personal reasons, with deputy Jerome D'Ambrosio taking over race leadership.
  • Vasseur's absence followed growing media speculation about his future at Ferrari as his three-year contract, starting in 2023, expires at the end of 2025 amidst alleged loss of board confidence.
  • Ferrari introduced a new floor upgrade to improve performance and address prior issues, contributing to strong qualifying where Charles Leclerc secured P2 and Lewis Hamilton P4.
  • Hamilton praised Vasseur, stating, "Fred is the main reason I am in this team," and credited the new floor for extracting more performance despite floor degradation.
  • Vasseur's absence and the ongoing speculation suggest pressure on Ferrari's leadership while the team aims to build on recent improvements and maintain competitiveness in 2025.
