In Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton, the Scuderia have two of the most talented drivers on the grid. Current team boss Fred Vasseur can't seem to get the best out of them. No wins (or podiums in Hamilton's case) this season tells its own story.

Laurent Mekies, the boss of sister team Racing Bulls, will replace Horner, who has been with the team since its inception in 2005 and led it to 124 wins and numerous championships.
