Luca di Montezemolo has responded mischievously to speculation about his future in politics.
It has been rumoured the Italian might hang up his hat as Ferrari president for a new calling, to which he told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "Me in politics? Yes, with Alonso as prime minister. I would have him because he has the strongest character and is optimistic but also a realist."
Luca di Montezemolo then named a cabinet of senior ministers to support his Spanish prime minister.
"Vettel, who is smart and fast, Rosberg for being able to hold off Schumacher, Perez for his talent and Hamilton, a great champion," he said.
Notably missing from Montezemolo's cabinet was Felipe Massa, whose Ferrari contract runs out at the end of the season.
He did however refer to three F1 legends: "Lauda, who was able to never pay for anything, not even a drink, Schumacher never gave up, and before he died Senna told me that his dream was to win a world championship with Ferrari."
Back to reality, about the FIA's decision last Sunday to penalise Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton after a duel at Sepang, Luca di Montezomolo says: "Let's not overreact, it was a great fight between them."
