Reporting on the poached talent pool, the Italian publication said:
Poaching personnel from rival teams is a common exercise in the sport. According to reports, the Italian team may have poached staff from Red Bull and Mercedes to overlook their 2022 operations. The aerodynamics team at Ferrari was known to design some of the most well-balanced chassis on the grid. With the new aerodynamic regulations in effect for 2022, the Prancing Horse squad is reported to have focused vehemently on the new cars.
Specifying the involvement of former engineer Byrne, the Italian publication’s report said:
The South African had a glorious career with the scarlet team during the Michael Schumacher years, alongside Ross Brawn and Jean Todt. Byrne is just one of the few old names that have returned to the Scuderia to assist the team’s return to its former glory.
Jean Todt reported to join Ferrari for 2022 season
According to veteran journalist Joe Saward, Jean Todt will return to his former team after being succeeded by Mohammed Ben Sulayem as the FIA president. The British F1 writer wrote in his blog that the Frenchman will be overlooking the Maranello-based squad in a similar super-consultant role as his former colleague Rory Byrne.
Todt was responsible for making Ferrari a dominant force in Formula 1, where the team witnessed its golden years winning five titles with Michael Schumacher. In recent years, team mismanagement and structural organizational issues in the Scuderia have reflected in their ability to be competitive on track.
