"Mr Horner is looking for a job" – Frederic Vasseur claps back at Ferrari rumours

Ferrari's performance has been underwhelming lately, with the team drifting into a competitive no-man's land. Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton finished fourth and sixth in a recent race, according to Motorsport.com.

The team is second in the constructors' championship but is well behind Mercedes and under threat from McLaren and Red Bull. Hamilton's win in Barcelona was a highlight of the season. There have been slips in execution, such as not orchestrating a tow for both cars in qualifying for the Italian GP and again in Azerbaijan.

Ferrari team principal Frederic Vasseur has been subject to rumours about his future, with some speculation suggesting he is being "stage managed" into retirement, though Yahoo Sports says this claim is not sourced from within Ferrari. Vasseur's contract extends to the end of 2027.
