    Fred is probably one of the most likeable and underrated F1 Team Principals on the current grid

      Likable? Sure. But he's massively overrated? At least by the media. I assume the people in the paddock know better. As a race boss he's probably really good. He has an impressive background in the feeder series. But him cancelling the Honda deal testifies his lack of organizational insights. They lost independence (Ferrari can pull everything back they want, like Simone Resta last year who was Alfa's main designer), identity (everyone speaks Italian there now instead of Swiss-German because all of the Ferrari people), financially they are weak and their infrastructure is probably outdated for a huge part now.
      With Honda they might not have had the performance in the beginning, but after a while they would. We've seen the steps they made with STR/RBR. And they would've brought the money, probably even bought the team, invest in the infrastructure, etc. etc. The point about the gearbox is not a strong one. I mean, surely Honda could've designed/made a gearbox within a year? And since they are talking about customer gearboxes, how terrible would that gearbox be? Vasseur outsourced as much as possible to Ferrari so that he didn't have to deal with the related responsibilities and could run the team like a feeder series-team.
      Honda could've been their way out of financial misery. Now they still have financial misery but also gave out independence and identity and all potential to grow is out the door.

      Wolff and Szafnauer are that. And Vasseur is one of the worst looking at what opportunities he poured down the drain with cancelling the Honda deal while becoming a Ferrari B/C team with all the disadvantages and few of the possible perks (basically none after Ferrari got found out). And at Renault, where he thought everything was in place to start winning, he already showed not to be in level in terms of understanding infrastructure.
