Ferrari axe veteran car designers in structural shake-up

Ferrari have parted company with chief designer Nikolas Tombazis and engineering director Pat Fry, two of the men responsible for designing this year's car as the team endured their first season without a win since 1993.

"Nikolas Tombazis and Pat Fry will be leaving the Scuderia," the Formula One outfit said in a statement on Tuesday while handing structural control to technical director James Allison.

"James Allison ... will be responsible for all technical aspects of delivering drivers Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel, as well as newly appointed test driver and third driver Esteban Gutierrez, with the most competitive Formula One car possible."
