Vettel happy with new environment: ''I have a lot more to give in Formula 1''

Sebastian Vettel has a new contract in Formula 1. The German will drive for Aston Martin in 2021 and 2022, which from 2021 will be the new namesake of the current Racing Point. A difficult decision, but the right one, according to Vettel himself.

Even before the 2020 Formula 1 season started, Ferrari announced that Vettel's contract would not be renewed. Carlos Sainz is taking his place alongside Charles Leclerc, so the question has been asked since, what Vettel would Vettel do? Will, he quit Formula 1, or will he find a place where he will be happy to work?

''This was certainly not an easy decision. It was actually about two points. Firstly, the belief in the team that they can do well. That is partly based on what you can already see, but also the fact that I believe that they can do even better. I have now made my decision as you know, because I also think I have more to give in a new environment," Vettel told Sky Sports.

But what is it that makes Aston Martin so attractive to Vettel? ''You have to be realistic. If you want to be world champion in 2021, you have to be with Mercedes. However, those two seats have already been forgiven, so you have to look beyond that. Racing Point has always had to do with few resources in recent years, but now the rules are coming their way and the team is growing. It is very cool for me to be part of the return of Aston Martin," concluded the German.
