President Luca di Montezemolo is not being subtle about how he feels about the Scuderia Ferrari's performance this season in Formula 1. In a meeting with all of the team's engineers, Montezemolo gave each of them a knife with a message that they need to put it between their teeth when working in the second half of the season. 

“The Ferrari I saw in yesterday’s race doesn’t sit well with me," said Montezemolo about the team's fifth and eighth place finish in the Hungarian Grand Prix.
