After a lifetime in Formula 1, it's over 2022 Mattia binotto he had been relieved of his duties as Ferrari team principal. After two years away from the Circus, a return to the top flight could be on the cards Aston Martin.
The difficulties that the Silverstone team is encountering in the last few races have led to the hypothesis of a change in management for next season. Second Motorsport total, Binotto would be in pole position for the role of Chief Technical Officer, discovered since Andrew Green left the team in 2023.
How Aston Martin would change with Binotto
Binotto is more suited to a technical role than to that of team principal, as demonstrated by the successes of the Schumacher era (and the failures as team boss in the recent past). His possible arrival at Aston Martin would serve to coordinate the entire process. Dan Fallows would remain the technical director and Binotto would monitor the development and the big picture together with CEO Martin Whitmarsh.
The experience of the Italian coach may prove crucial in view of the new regulations 2026, when Aston Martin switches to Honda engine. For months the goal for Lawrence Stroll's team has been to fight for the title in two years and a figure like that of Binotto could represent a step forward in this direction.
