Sebastian Vettel on the Portimao track

The German has never driven on the track. But on the morning of free practice, Vettel went on a traditional track walk. He stated, “I was also at Maranello and drove the track on our simulator and I have to say I found it very interesting.

“Now I’m curious to get on track and try it for myself and see what it’s like to drive with its blind corners, adverse camber and heavy braking points. I believe everyone is doing everything possible to allow me to give it my best, even if the car is undoubtedly difficult to drive.

Vettel further added, “I think therefore that Charles is doing a great job, given he has managed to squeeze the maximum out of the SF1000 every time.” 

Sebastian Vettel is calling curtains to his chapter with Ferrari. His new team is looking forward to hosting a World Champion in their car. The duo of Aston Martin and Sebastian Vettel is surely going to make a huge impact.
