Ferrari, David Sanchez has resigned: he leaves the head of the aerodynamic sector of the Cavallino

David Sanchez let her Ferrari. The Head of vehicle concept of the Scuderia – the manager of the aerodynamics sector – has resigned after more than ten years spent in Maranello, where he arrived in October 2012. Two years ago he was promoted to Chief engineer, a role from which he followed the design and development of last year’s F1-75 and the SF-23, this season’s car.

Sanchez’s outing is destined to have a considerable impact on the Ferrari season. Substitutes, at least in the short term, will have to be taken from inside the box due to the long gardening periods to which the senior figures in the sector who work in other teams are bound. Bond that will apply to Sanchez himself. As reported by motorsport.comthe French engineer’s future should be in an English team.

The reason remains to be understood: a choice matured over time or disappointment after the Bahrain GP?. Sanchez was one of the key figures of the Binotto era, so the doubt remains whether it was a technical choice.
