Ferrari announce reshuffle of power unit department

Luca Marmorini is to leave his role as the director of Ferrari’s engine and electronics department as the Italian team restructure their power unit department. Marmorini had been at Maranello for almost five years, having joined from Toyota in 2009.

The move, which was announced on Thursday, sees Mattia Binotto assume the role of chief operating officer, whilst Lorenzo Sassi retains his position as chief designer of the power unit.

James Allison, Ferrari's technical director, continues to be responsible for the entire car project, supported by chief chassis designer Nikolas Tombazis.
