The figure of Stefano Domenicali
In his role as chairman and CEO of Liberty Media, Stefano Domenicali – as is logical – spends a lot of effort praising Formula 1, the spectacle on track, and the golden age in terms of sponsors and audience that it has been experiencing recently.
Clearly, his statements often spark debate among fans, enthusiasts, and insiders, since – willingly or unwillingly – they often create a sort of opposition between purists and those open to modernity.
Many Ferrari fans also do not fail to point out how Domenicali has changed compared to his long period at Maranello.

Turrini and the phrase about Ferrari
Leo Turrini, a well-known motorsport journalist, from the pages of his blog Profondo Rosso on Quotidiano.net, answered some questions from his readers, several focused precisely on Stefano Domenicali and his role in F1 and Liberty Media.
In the long speech, it is interesting to isolate a view of Turrini on the Prancing Horse: “As Ferrari’s sporting director, Dom contributed to the golden era of the Prancing Horse. As team principal of Maranello, he is the last to have won a world championship (Constructors 2008) and to have fought for three drivers’ titles (2008, 2010, 2012) until the last round of the championship. He lost them by a total of 7 points, if I remember correctly.

But then a generation passed and a Ferrari driver in contention for the World Championship until the last GP has not been seen anymore. Obviously, on the subject, fans of Vasseur (and before him Binotto and Arrivabene) remain silent and mute.
I add that if upon Marchionne’s death, 2018, the shareholders had recalled Stefano as chairman and CEO at Maranello, things, in my opinion, would have gone decidedly better“.
