MEXICO CITY -- Sebastian Vettel believes Maurizio Arrivabene is still the right man to lead Ferrari despite the problems the team has faced in the second half of the season.
After Vettel's championship challenge collapsed with two reliability issues in two races over the Malaysian and Japanese Grands Prix weekends there has been increased speculation that the Italian team will make changes at the top. However, Ferrari chairman Sergio Marchionne has since said it would be "idiotic" to pin the blame on one individual, appearing to rule out a high-profile sacking over the winter.
Vettel believes Arrivabene has been a key individual in building Ferrari towards a championship challenge and is confident he is the right man to lead the team into 2018.
