Stefano Domenicali is not ruling out a future Ferrari seat for Jules Bianchi — but it probably won’t happen in 2014.
Following rookie Bianchi’s impressive start to his F1 career this year with Marussia, Ferrari boss Domenicali admitted this week he can imagine seeing the young Frenchman move on to "other teams".
Bianchi, 23, is the cream of Ferrari’s driver development ’academy’.
"I am very happy," Italian Domenicali told France’s RMC Sport, "because Jules has done three perfect races and I hope he keeps going like that.
"I think he has a bright future in formula one," he said in Bahrain.
Asked if a Ferrari race seat could be an option for Bianchi, Domenicali added: "I don’t know about next year, but in the future, yes of course."
