Ferrari Team Boss Restates F1 Racing Team’s Love For Vettel

Ferrari team boss, Mattia Binotto, has reaffirmed his team’s appreciation for German Formula 1 (F1) driver Sebastian Vettel.

Allnews reports that speaking on an Instagram Live with Sky Sports F1, Binotto was asked whether the enforced break at the hands of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic would be welcome for a driver like Vettel, who has competed full-time in F1 since 2008.

“I don’t think the interruption is speaking to whatever driver," said Binotto.

"I think that they all really love racing, that’s part of their life.

"I know that Sebastian is missing normality, missing the fact that we are not on track racing and he would like to do that as soon as possible, but we need to do that when everything is gone and we are back to normality.

"Seb is a genuine and straightforward person. He loves his job, loves really his job, and that’s one of the reasons why as well at Ferrari, we appreciate him so much.”
