Ferrari president Luca di Montezemelo has assured team boss Stefano Domenicali that his job is not under threat.
The Italian outfit had been expected to challenge for honours this season but find themselves 195 points behind Red Bull-Renault in the constructors championship standings.
Meanwhile, Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso is 107 points behind Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel in the drivers' standings with seven races of the 2011 season remaining, but di Montezemelo is confident that the team will be ready to challenge again next season.
"I'm very happy that my team management is so confident and I look forward that he will deliver," the Ferrari president told BBC Sport.
"I am pleased to have what I think is the best driver in the world, that is Fernando and I'm pleased to see a good reaction from Felipe [Massa] in the second half of the season.
"So for next year I hope to make a condition to win again the championship."
Kimi Raikkonen, in 2007, was the last Ferrari driver to win the drivers' championship.
