Sebastian Vettel signed up with Aston Martin to help the team make a successful comeback to the Formula 1 grid. After the horror that was brought on by the 2020 season, Sebastian Vettel will hope to find his way back to his former championship-winning self soon enough.

However, Sebastian Vettel did not have the best of starts with the team during pre-season testing. As a result, the German fell 100 laps shorter than the original plan. As the season opener inches closer, Vettel offers his two cents onf what the Bahrain Grand Prix might look like.

“It’s going to be a bit of a learning curve in these first few races: for me, it’s a new team – I’m still getting to know everyone, still understanding how the AMR21 wants to be driven, and familiarising myself with the team,” said the German driver.

Why Sebastian Vettel Insists on Labelling his Ferrari F1 Stint a ‘Failure’

Sebastian Vettel excited about his new journey

It’s no secret that Sebastian Vettel had a horrendous 2020 season with Ferrari. He could only manage a mere total of 33 points with barely 1 podium to his name. In Aston Martin, the German hopes to get a car that will help him get back to his glory days.

“I’m very excited to be at the start of that journey in Bahrain this weekend. The conditions were very interesting during testing – high winds made it quite tricky to drive – and we know that tyre degradation is always a key factor here. It should make for an exciting race,” he shared.
