It's a Bluff - Ferrari get so much money from F-1, they would be fools to leave!

According to the Article Mercedes and Renault share the same view a Ferrari. What do the fans think is what i would be more concerned with and they do have a point with what they said why let racing be dictated by Lawyers and not engineers. There is still Le Mans and the Gt Racing series i am sure Ferrari would find a way.

Not the first time they threatened to leave F1. In the mid 80's they said they were going to go to CART (which was really popular then) and even made a car: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrari_637

But F1 gave in and they stayed...

Um, sports car racing maybe? Their non factory backed GT cars do very, very well and there are rumors of a Ferrari factory team getting back into the top tier of sports car racing (now LMP1). Which would make sense with Porsche, Audi, Toyota, etc running in that. Plus, back in the day Enzo actually preferred sports car racing to open wheel racing...

Nascar Truck series. Toyota, Chevy, Ford and Ferrari

Then you will first see the Ferrari Trophy Truck kicking it at the Baja.
