Stefano Domenicali replaces Todt as Ferrari boss
Ferrari has announced that Stefano Domenicali will replace Jean Todt as head of its Formula 1 team next year, as part of a significant reshuffle of its senior management and technical staff.
On January 1 Domenicali – currently the team’s sporting director – will be promoted to director of the Gestione Sportiva, the Italian marque’s motorsport division.
Technical director Mario Almondo will become head of operations, with chassis chief Aldo Costa taking over Almondo’s current role and Gilles Simon continuing as engine director.
It remains to be seen whether or not Todt will stay on at the helm of the Ferrari car company.
Ferrari said it would release more details of the team’s organisation before the end of this year.
The announcement follows Honda’s revelation this morning that it has signed renowned former Ferrari technical director Ross Brawn as its team principal.
