In 2014, Ferrari experienced one of its worst seasons in recent years, finishing in fourth place in the Constructors' Championship, behind Mercedes, Red Bull, and Williams. The team struggled with reliability issues, aerodynamic problems, and a lack of overall competitiveness compared to the dominant Mercedes team. Ferrari's driver lineup for the season consisted of Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonen, but the pairing struggled to match the pace of the leading cars. Alonso scored the team's only two podium finishes of the year, with a third-place finish in China and a second-place finish in Hungary. Raikkonen had a disappointing season, failing to finish on the podium and only managing to score 55 points in the championship. At the end of the season, Fernando Alonso left Ferrari to join McLaren, while Sebastian Vettel was announced as his replacement for 2015.
