Why Vasseur relishes 'feeling the pressure' as Ferrari's F1 boss
OPINION: Fred Vasseur has spent only a few weeks as team principal for the Ferrari Formula 1 team, but is already intent on taking the Scuderia back to the very top. And despite it being arguably the most demanding job in motorsport, the Frenchman is relishing the challenge
Many people would view putting on the Ferrari uniform as the marque's Formula 1 team principal as a peak moment in their career. But, for newly appointed boss Fred Vasseur, his mindset is very different.
As a man who has battled since the junior categories for racing victory, his target was never just to have a Prancing Horse logo on his chest. He wants to be up there on the podium with it as a winner.
