Sebastian Vettel is running the last race of his chapter with Ferrari. The German joined the Ferrari team after winning four world championships with Red Bull in 2015. He joined the team to fulfill his life-long dream of winning a championship with Ferrari.
However, he failed to realize his dream as he is moving on from the team at the end of this season. He has had a rollercoaster ride at Ferrari, with the last season being a downhill ride.
The season has arguably been one of the worst for the German in Formula 1. His relationship with the team also suffered throughout the season, and thus, the German decided to make a move to Racing Point/Aston Martin for next season.

Vettel admitted that he could not make the most of his time with Ferrari. On the eve of his last weekend with the team, he admitted that he has not claimed the targets he had set for himself during his time at Ferrari.
He said, “We’ve still failed. We had the ambition and target to win the championship. And we didn’t, so I think it’s just an honest reflection. I don’t think saying it out loud changes anything.”
“We’ve had good races, bad races, we’ve got close, sometimes we’re far away. There’s a lot of reasons why, but in the big picture, I think it’s not unfair, it’s just the truth. Nothing wrong with saying it out loud,” he further added.
