Hardly, the stats are there for all to see. He was beaten by Massa, destroyed by Alonso and beaten by Seb, there is no reason to assume he will suddenly get any better as that would be pretty rare at his age in most sports. He is going to collect one last pay cheque while losing to another team mate.
Forza Ferrari

Of course he does not decide, otherwise Kimi would’ve had another one year contract

Hartley staying seems like the most logical thing to do.
Toro Rosso taking a Mercedes driver (if Wehrlein is still with them) makes no sense.
Wehrlein is no more tied with Mercedes

Schumi jr. needs one more year in more competitive environment at least.

Ferrari’s biggest problem is that they are “too Italian”, that’s according to former F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone.
Although Ferrari had arguably the fastest car on the grid at various stages of this campaign, they failed to capitalise.
Losing races they were expected to win, most recently Italy and Singapore, Sebastian Vettel has fallen 50 points off the pace.
In the battle for the Constructors’ title, they trail Mercedes by 53 points.
Asked what he believes has gone wrong, former F1 boss Ecclestone told ESPN: “It’s too Italian. I said to somebody the other day it’s back to the old days.”
Pressed on whether by ‘the old days’ he meant prior to Jean Todt, Ross Brawn and Michael Schumacher, who won five titles in a row in the early 2000s, he said: “Yes. Before.
“We got Todt to go there and look after things a little bit, so it wasn’t Italian too much, and Michael was running the team. So it was all a bit different.
“I think they’re missing that sort of a set-up now.”
This is not the first time that Ferrari have been criticised for being too Italy.

In 2009 Niki Lauda declared that a return to the “spaghetti culture” was costing Ferrari in the factory, and ultimately out on track.
Ecclestone reckons part of today’s problem is that unlike at Mercedes, Ferrari’s parent company has a big say in the operating of the F1 team.
“Ferrari have got a completely different way of going on to Mercedes, haven’t they,” he added.
“Mercedes has got a team that’s pure, all they do is racing, it’s nothing to do with the manufacturer.
“Ferrari is looking after their car production side of things, gearing that more or less to their Formula One performances. So it’s run in a different way.”

Maurizio Arrivabene could leave his role as Ferrari team principal for Italian football giants Juventus, according to reports in Italy. Widespread reports in Italian media have suggested that Arrivabene – already a member of Juventus' board – is a leading candidate to replace departing CEO Giuseppe Marotta.
The Serie A champions recently confirmed that Marotta will leave his role by the end of October, after eight years in the role.
Under Marotta's watch, Juve have dominated Italian football, winning seven-straight championships.
This summer's signing of Cristiano Ronaldo is likely to extend the Turin club's stronghold over Serie A, as well as boost their hopes in the Champions League.
Arrivabene has close links to the Agnelli family, who own both Juventus and the FIAT company, which incorporates Ferrari – and has served on Juve's board since 2012.
The 61-year-old was appointed Scuderia team principal in November 2014 and has led their revival in the title picture in recent seasons.

if he said that while Sergio was still around Bernie would be walking at the bottom of Lago di Garda with specially made to measure concrete shoes..... Ferrari mounted a semi decent challenge this year because they got rid of the foreign team members like James Allison who gladly went on mutliple investigation tirades against our current spec engine with the FIA. Forget the Ross / Todt / Schumi era. That is no longer obtainable. Mercedes are a fully british team bar the label on the car. Sergio wanted to make it an all Italian pride and hence why Giovinazzi is being groomed to join eventually + Leclerc (Monaco and speaks Italian)
Quite right too regarding Ecclestone, although Lago di Garda is too nice a place for him. As for Allison, we were all grateful for what he appeared to have brought to the Scuderia, only for him to have family tragedy, but that doesn't excuse what inside knowledge he may have subsequently passed on to the FIA regarding Ferrari's future innovations. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with an Italian team which is trying to uphold that country's pride, Italy desperately needs it as much as our beloved team.
