“No love”: Vettel on his relationship with Binotto

“We respect each other, but this kind of love has never developed between us that serves as a foundation,” said the 33-year-old Journal of Sport . Binotto is “a pragmatic person. Time will tell how the Ferrari team he leads performs in the future.” As is well known, Vettel had a much better relationship with Binotto’s predecessor Maurizio Arrivabene. Vettel will be in the Ferrari for the last time at the Formula 1 season finale on Sunday (14.10:14 p.m.) in Abu Dhabi. In six years he won 13 times and was runner-up twice in the world championship, but in the last two years in particular things have gone steadily downhill. At the end of this season, Vettel is only in XNUMXth place in the drivers' standings, the Ferrari is obviously much better suited to the strengths of his team rival Charles Leclerc. Vettel praises Leclerc Vettel never felt isolated at Scuderia, even in the difficult year of 2020. “Ferrari does not exclude people,” said Vettel: “That is not a characteristic of this team and not a characteristic of the Italians.” He described Leclerc as “young and inspiring. He will be successful and show his worth, at Ferrari or at another team.” Vettel is looking forward to the future The German himself is already focusing on moving to Aston Martin, “an exciting journey in which we will try to get to the top.” Looking to the future, he feels in a “privileged” position. “I’m still young and there are still a lot of open doors. I have three children, I want to take care of them and raise them with the right values," said Vettel, "I hope that I keep an open mentality and don't get old and grumpy too quickly."
