Scuderia Ferrari German driver Sebastian Vettel is convinced that he can win a world title with the Maranello team. Sebastian. who hasn’t won a world championship since 2013, is adamant that he will top the table with the Italian side before he leaves the team.

Ferrari have endured a disappointing start to the 2019 season with Mercedes duo Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas dominating the first four races. Despite that, Seb thinks that Mercedes’ five-year dominance will end whilst he is with his current team.

“Maybe I’m a bad dealer but I wouldn’t because I’m convinced I can win with Ferrari,” Sebastian Vettel told Sky Sports when asked if he would swap two of his titles with Red Bull for one with Ferrari – “No need to trade!”

The German went on to claim that he isn’t interested in making an even bigger F1 legacy, with his name already engraved into the history books after four consecutive titles from 2010 – 2013: “I don’t care – I don’t need a legacy,” he said – “I think, especially nowadays, the world is moving so fast – I don’t need to be remembered. I’m not sad about it, it’s good to move on. As much as I love tradition, and I’m a traditionalist, I’m against being stuck in a moment, or era. I think it’s good to go on, it’s good to go forward, we have to.” – he admitted.

Sebastian Vettel, 31, signed a three-year deal with Ferrari back in 2017, meaning he has one more year on his deal. He continued: “I hope that when I’m older, I’m progressive – moving forward and not looking back. I think it’s nice to look back on a career, but it’s not the point of our lives, I guess. It’s much more about looking forward.”

Next up is the Spanish Grand Prix next weekend, where Sebastian Vettel will hope to improve on his third-placed finish last time out.
