This refers to when Ferrari or one of their F1 drivers do something so stupid that it may a deeper meaning. It often refers to Ferrari's horrible 2020 performance in F1, when they finished sixth in the Constructers standings even though they finished second in 2019. The reason for this was primarily their car. It had a high drag chassis and a weak power unit, meaning that their car was awfully slow. In 2019 at Monza (Ferrari's Home race) Charles Leclerc won and Sebastian Vettel hit 365 km/h (227 mph), which is one of the fastest speeds ever reached in a modern F1 car. However, in 2020, they had a double DNF. The term is often used in reference to Mattia Binotto, Ferrari's Team Principal, who is often blamed for these results.
