Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo has revealed that his team will “push hard” for better rules to be written for formula one.
The Italian, at Fiorano over the weekend for the celebration of Ferrari’s 60th anniversary, hit out at current rules including those governing the Safety Car and the design of modern F1 racers.
“No, I do not like the rules much, for various reasons,” the Spanish newspaper Marca quoted 59-year-old Montezemolo as saying.
He added: “I think it is necessary that they be changed. I do not like the rule for the Safety Car, which turned Montreal into a game of roulette.
“And I don’t like the fact that races are not fought properly because of aerodynamic considerations, where it is so difficult to overtake.
“I believe that formula one, a great international success with new and enthusiastic locations, must quickly confront these subjects and Ferrari will push hard to make it happen.”
Montezemolo did, however, spare some praise for F1’s advances in the area of safety, after Robert Kubica amazingly escaped an horror impact in Canada without injuring himself.
“It has been a long and difficult battle,” he explained, “after the numerous tragedies of the past, but we must never stop pushing for even more advances.”
