Vettel will one day win the title with Ferrari according to Arrivabene

La Team Ferrari runs after time. In fact, we have to go back to 2007 to see a Maranello driver win (Kimi Räikkönen), the Italian team's drought in the Manufacturers' Championship having been running since 2008.

The 2018 season, however, seemed to be that of redemption for the Italians, with an SF17H placed by many as more efficient than the eternal rival Mercedes, And a Sebastian Vettel more determined than ever, and seeming free of his demons glimpsed in 2017, particularly in Baku.

But since the German Grand Prix, the momentum has reversed, Lewis Hamilton having largely regained the upper hand over the Ferrari driver. The Mercedes resident could even be titled this weekend in Austin in the event of a favorable result. And if the chances of seeing Sebastian Vettel crowned this season are now slim, Maurizio Arrivabene, Team Principal of Scuderia Ferrari, believes that his protégé will one day achieve his goal.

" I am sure that Sebastian Vettel will win the world championship title sooner or later behind the wheel of a Ferrari, indicates Arrivabene in the columns of the Gazzetta dello Sport. I think it has something to do with Schumacher : he is German, but very Italian and linked to Maranello since a young age. »

In 2019, Sebastian Vettel will also see the arrival of a new teammate at Ferrari, in the person of Charles Leclerc. Enough to offer another challenge, internally this time, to the four-time world champion?
