Former Ferrari boss Romolo Tavoni believes that Ferrari's future success will be determined by Sebastian Vettel

Ferrari struggled to perform last season and despite having the quickest car, finished behind Mercedes

Former Ferrari boss Tavoni said to grandprix247, “In 2018, Vettel had a bad championship, making too many mistakes, although a few were not his fault.”

Tavoni believes that any success Ferrari have in the future will depend on Vettel. 

“I believe that the keystone of the immediate future for Ferrari hinges on the Vettel situation. We saw some unacceptable imperfections and now we will see what happens.”

“This is a fundamental key for 2019. I think the Vettel’s skills are his biggest asset and he has the talent to do it, after all, he is a four-time World Champion.”

“In other words, Ferrari has a new boss in Binotto, now Vettel has to be his spearhead on track and for this, he needs to get his head back together.”

Vettel will have pressure from new teammate Charles Leclerc and many are expecting the younger driver to really push the former world champion. This competition could help Vettel perform or could make him crumble. 

Ferrari have two very quick drivers for 2019 and should be in with a great chance of winning the championship.
