Former Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo has backed away from his earlier criticism of the Maranello outfit, after claiming the Italian team have been lucky in 2015 had triggered renewed suggestions he is simply bitter about his ousting.
"I'm tired of all this," he was quoted by Ansa news agency on Wednesday. "All I say now is 'Forza Ferrari!'"
Montezemolo's comments come amid an increasing feeling that Fernando Alonso made a big mistake by leaving the resurgent Ferrari for struggling McLaren-Honda.
Emilio de Villota, a former Spanish driver, admitted it is "a little frustrating for the Spanish fans" to see Alonso's current plight.
"People say he would have been better to stay at Ferrari," Villota told El Confidencial, "but that would not have been the solution, as we see that (Sebastian) Vettel is still third. What Fernando did was an unavoidable risk."
