  • Stefano Domenicali to be new F1 boss next year

    From Brian Lawrence@24:150/2 to rec.autos.sport.f1 on Wed Sep 23 11:27:45 2020

    "The 55-year-old's appointment has not been announced by F1, but has
    been confirmed to the BBC by senior sources.

    Chase Carey, CEO and chairman of F1 since US group Liberty Media took
    over the sport in 2017, will stay as chairman in a form still to be decided.

    A spokesman for F1 declined to comment on Domenicali's new position. Domenicali himself did not immediately respond to a request to comment.

    Domenicali has not yet formally signed a contract, but the news has been communicated to team bosses."

    Thanks. No wonder Ferrari kept their veto right during the recent re-negotiations. It didn't make
    sense to me at the time...

    That "kept" above should have read "got to keep". Bloody poor editor!
