Sebastian Vettel is all set to jump ship to Aston Martin Racing come 2021. There have been debates on whether Vettel would re-kindle his old form or fall even further down from where he is right now. Daniel Ricciardo feels that Aston Martin will be a success story for the German.

During the press conference, Daniel Ricciardo showered his former teammate at Red Bull with praise.

“What I will say is, I think he’s obviously driven. Stating the obvious, but he’s always been very interested in the team itself. And technically, he’s always willing to put the work in,” said the Australian.

“I don’t know, it’s racing. It’s all in our DNA, but he really lives and breathes it, I feel. And we might go to sleep at night with maybe other thoughts. And I feel most of the time he’s going to sleep with racing thoughts.

“So, I’m sure he’s going to put the work in, and yeah, I think it’ll be probably very successful for him. The team looks like they are in a good place, so I think he’ll obviously contribute to that quite tremendously.”

After Sebastian Vettel was left out of Ferrari for the 2021 season, speculations arose that he might take a break from Formula 1. But that was not how things turned out.

Sebastian conducted talks with multiple teams in F1 from the moment he was left high and dry. Fortunately, he found a team in Racing Point willing to give him a seat for the following season.

“I think he’ll bring with him a world champion work ethic, and that’s what we all want to work from. Everyone’s going to have to up their game and he will be a great mentor for Lance too.”

The 4 World Championship titles that he secured during his Red Bull days clearly gained the attention of Racing Point. With the addition of Vettel, the team will look to use his experience and take the fight to the top field.
