According to the latest reports, the Sebastian Vettel – Aston Martin agreement for 2021 isn’t a done deal, yet. Reports suggesting the fact that Vettel had already signed a contract with the British team for 2021 emerged yesterday.

Turns out, the German driver hasn’t done anything of the sort. However, there is a strong possibility of Vettel joining Aston Martin next year.

The F1 rumor mill went into overdrive last night with reports from Bild claiming Vettel had reached an agreement with Racing Point. Allegedly, the 4-time World Champion is looking to replace Sergio Perez, who has a lengthy contract with the team.

Sebastian Vettel doesn’t have a contract, yet

Perez announced a contract extension with Racing Point just last year, revealing a long-term deal that would have held good till 2023.

However, there seems to be an exit clause in the Mexican’s contract that Racing Point can exploit. Apparently, Racing Point can trigger an early exit as far as Perez is concerned to make way for Sebastian Vettel.

While these events are a lot to take in, the latest developments suggest that talks between Vettel and Racing Point are still on.
