We did not. And we had time advantage, resources everything in place. But whatever, call me however you want, but saying the same thing for last 14 years is tiresome as well. "The team is changing structure" how many times we did it in these 14 years? Like 4 times at least. We've heard stuff like "it's longterm project" from every team principal we've had and all of them failed. It's the same cycle again and again and this time I hoped it was our time. Yet we are going downhill again and I wasn't ready for that.
There is a difference between low expectations and flying to cloud number 9.
I have been a tifoso since when I was 7-8 years old, and you might want to consider this before telling me about my (so called) low expectations.
I have seen Ferrari in utter low, pit wall in way worse conditions (before Todt joined the team and even before Michael Schumacher and then the so called gang joined Michael) , and if you think that right now we're bad, you might want to visit those times and start head banging on walls.
Being realistic is not having low expectations. Being realistic is understanding the limits and how you go from A to B.
So you say, you expected domination. Based on what? Just because we worked on a new car for 1-2 years?
Sure, this is a good start but..
How about our restructure as a team (organizational, personnel)?
Is one or two year enough to make us competitive, no no, I am sorry, DOMINANT?
How much time did Ferrari need to be dominant back in 1996 ? oh...
Expectations is one thing, Reality is another. Try to think on this base. Then we can talk again.
