Sebastian Vettel’s future is still unclear. The four-time world champion F1 is looking for a seat for 2021, after Ferrari did not offer him a new contract at the beginning of this year, but signed Carlos Sainz as the German’s successor.
This puts Vettel in a difficult package; Mercedes says they have no place – although Hamilton’s contract is expiring and has not been officially renewed, and the same applies to Red Bull Racing who also say they will continue with Alexander Albon. The only option to drive for the points is Racing Point, which will be Aston Martin next year.
Doubts about Racing Point
His first team boss in Formula 1, Gerhard Berger, has spoken more often in recent weeks about Vettel’s position, but also about the troubles at Ferrari. At Sky Germany he wonders where Vettel can go to fight for the win: “The step to Red Bull or Mercedes is not possible at the moment, only if a special or special situation arises.”
“Which other team can give him a winning car? You could say that Racing Point can do that at the moment, but the question is whether they can really compete with Red Bull and Mercedes next year. I have serious doubts about that.”
What does Vettel want?
Gerhard Berger tries to get inside the head of the German: “The big question is of course how he sees his own future. Does he want to attack? Does he want to try again? The only advice I can give him is to join a team. choose where he gets a car that will allow him to win at least races. I just don’t see which team can offer him that at the moment. “
