The departure of Allison earlier this year has forced a reshuffle at the team, with Ferrari president Sergio Marchionne convinced that there was enough strength in depth at the outfit to run things a bit differently.

Moving away from a structure that was reliant on department heads, Ferrari now has a flatter structure where all staff have more input in to the progress. Its technical department is headed by Mattia Binotto.

With the team having enjoyed more encouraging form in recent races, it already believes the new plans are working – which is why it says there are no plans to recruit any more big name stars.

Speaking at the Singapore Grand Prix, team principal Maurizio Arrivabene said: “Our team is done, we’re perfectly okay with the people that we have.

“The atmosphere today in Maranello is very good. We have the right people with Mattia [Binotto] and the people who are working with Mattia,” he said.

“They just need to continue to keep up this kind of atmosphere, to look forward to next year, keeping an eye on this year also and eventually to work in peace.

"That means, without pressure. It’s exactly what they are doing and I have nothing to add. So we don’t need to add anyone.”

Arrivabene then grew frustrated at further questions regarding its structural plans for the future.

“I said many many times that we are perfectly fine. Mattia is doing a good job, we are okay as we are, and we don’t need anyone else,” he said.

“Mattia is our technical director where before James was our technical director, now it’s Mattia with all the organisation that is in place. We have explained about the organisation many many times. What more do I need to add?”
