Ferrari endured a terrible campaign last year. They only scored 131 points and finished sixth in the constructor’s championship. While some people like to use humor as a method to deal with tragic events, the Italian team doesn’t. In the third season of Drive to Survive, Sebastian Vettel was told not to make fun of the team’s 2020 performance.

The lackluster car that Scuderia made for 2020 provided to be quite a challenge for their drivers, Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc. They didn’t have a single win throughout the year, and only managed to get on the podium thrice.

Sebastian Vettel told to keep the jokes aside as Ferrari suffer

When Vettel was leaving Ferrari at the end of the year, the team didn’t think it was appropriate for him to joke about how their season was going. The German, however, thought otherwise.

Vettel said, “I think you should be funny if you look at our performance.

The Scuderia was not happy with the German’s announcement

At Ferrari’s 1000th GP, it was announced that Vettel would be on the grid with Aston Martin in 2021. The timing of this announcement raised a few questions in people’s minds, and why was it made on Ferrari’s special day.

“Hoffer tells the drivers that she has had a lot of enquiries about the timing of the announcement, given it came on the eve of Ferrari’s 1000th Grand Prix in Tuscany. Her reasoning is that the timing was down to a reaction to Sergio Perez announcing he was leaving the team,” states a report about the sequence of events in DTS.

“Vettel replied, “Yes, and it’s the truth as well’,” the report continues.

Now, with a new team, the 33-year-old hopes to find his form again. He starts a new chapter in 2021 and believes he can redeem himself once the season begins.
