Rumours suddenly surfaced this weekend that Mattia Binotto would have to leave as team boss of Ferrari before the start of the end-of-season season in Bahrain at the end of March. Josef Kral, however, has now publicly denied the story.
Via social media, the Czech driver, who is employed by Ferrari's GT team, reacted. “Just to make it loud and clear… Some of my recent comments about Scuderia Ferrari have been misinterpreted and taken out of context. What I said was based on my own opinion and without any real base or information…. I apologise if these speculations have created any issue."
