'Ferrari would benefit from Red Bull on their side'

Cesare Fiorio, the former Ferrari team boss, says that if he was still running the Maranello marque, he would supply engines to Red Bull. As it is splitting with Renault, the former quadruple world champions have warned that unless Ferrari agrees to release a supply of power units for 2016, Red Bull and also Toro Rosso could be left without horse power for 2016.

"I would give them engines," Fiorio, who led Maranello in the Alain Prost era, told Rai Radio 1. "Why? If for no other reason than to not have Red Bull-Mercedes as an opponent. With Red Bull on your side, at least Ferrari would benefit from their findings," he added. (GMM)
