According to Red Bull Motorsport consultant Helmut Marko, the reason why Sebastian Vettel failed to achieve his goals with the Ferrari team was due to the “insecurity” caused by the German GP crash in 2018.
When the four-time world champion joined the Ferrari team in 2015, he wanted to win more titles in Italy. However, in 2017 and 2018, when the Ferrari team was able to challenge the Mercedes AMG team, he failed to achieve this. aims.
After being taken away by the newcomer Charles Leclerc, the Ferrari team further replaced him with Carlos Sainz in the 2021 season. The German driver will join the Aston Martin factory team renamed from Racing Point next year to replace Sergio Perez.
Although the Ferrari team lacked competitiveness in the 2020 season, Vettel only qualified for three of the 17 competitions to qualify for Q3. In contrast, teammate Leclerc ran 11 times, so some people questioned, Vettel The best form of being an F1 driver is a thing of the past.
Marko believes that the 33-year-old Vettel has indeed lost confidence in the Ferrari team in recent years, and attributed this to the mistake of the German GP in the light rain crashing and retiring in the light rain when the German GP led the Hockenheim circuit in 2018. Before this race Vettel has been leading the drivers’ standings.
Marko believes that Vettel’s mistake has had a lasting impact. He said in an interview with Autosport: “I think this is a sense of insecurity. In my opinion, it started with the lead at Hockenheim in 2018. Get off the crash.”
“At the time (Maurizio) Arrivabene was still the leader, and since then his relationship with the Ferrari team has gone from bad to worse. Objectively I don’t know how bad this is for him, but I have to say that he himself made too many mistakes. With this crash, a lot of uncertainty began to emerge, and Vettel often couldn’t run above the level he should have.”
When asked if he thinks Vettel can return to peak form in the Aston Martin team, Marko said: “For himself, I hope he can.”
