Why Sebastian Vettel said NO

If we stick to the analogy for a while marriages, is honey Vettel in Ferrari started squeaking two years ago.

More precisely for Scuderia the fateful summer of 2018 when he left them Sergio Marchionne and when it is Hag na German GP after an unwelcome mistake, instead of landing on the podium in protective tires. We didn’t know at the time that this one was going to be error, which certainly cost him the title of champion, the first in a series of events that will German led to the final departure from Maranella. A trip off the track in the slowest part of the racetrack is honey Vettel and left the team a rift that only widened with further mistakes.

All in all, he is the situation was aggravated, albeit in a better car, but always great Lewis Hamilton, who made no mistakes, and last season naturally fast, motivated and success hungry teammate, against whom he often ran out of something more that would justify mistakes and consolidate the position the first driver, for which he announced it last year binotto and who to a racer who was paid for a three-year contract 100 million Eur, also flows.

The last chance to patch the crack is Hag got last September at GP of Singaporewhen the team set up German in a privileged position, as opposed to sharpened Leclerc. This move is in the light of the events that followed to be understood as a noble attempt Mattie Binotta, from Vettel returns some of the confidence they have at 4-time world champion bugs began to eat away. Binotto's the message sent to him by this was perfectly clear. The team stands behind you, but we demand a result. It is not enough that it is Vettl's the heart really beat in time jumping cavalrythat he was a racer in his role Ferrari completely committed and that he truly respected history and myth Ferrari. It is not enough that it is Hag by nature an honest man who knows how to admit his faults and the superiority of a rival. The fact remains.

V five attempts he failed to achieve the goal he had I asked and which it is the team expected, this is the title of world champion. Each attempt was followed by a new disappointment, which probably peaked after the season 2018, when the title ran out really little and continued into the year 2019when he got strong competition within the team, Charles Leclerc. Performances of the young Monaco, are negotiating options Vettel certainly weakened, but even at this year's winter tests, the announcement seemed to be contract extension, so to speak, just a question of a suitable date. I will not guess how much the pandemic we are witnessing contributed to the decision, but it is binotto as early as March this year stressed that it is Seb the first choice, and the latter apparently encountered insurmountable obstacles.

If you have a high salary, it’s because you deserve it and because you’re worth so much - Ayrton Senna

Ferrari, which has a long - term contract with Leclerc, Yippee Vettel set some kind of ultimatum, one-year contract, lower salary and completely equal status with a teammate. I believe that the amount of salary is the smallest problem. The problem is what pay represents. “If you have a high salary, it's because you deserve it and because you're worth so much,”Are the words Ayrton Senna, which outline beautifully Vettl's situation. He simply could not accept these conditions, as it would mean degradation of the situation and a silent acknowledgment that he had not met the goals given to him in the past seasons and that were achievable.

Marilyn Monroe she once said that when the love between the two ends, brings suffering to one, if no one suffers, then of love nor was it, but if they both suffer, then love is not over yet. In this case, I would say he is suffering Hag, what will this mean for shorter season 2020 (if implemented), we will follow with interest. Bo Vettel all together in an internal duel additionally set on fire, will be in the sixth attempt exploded and won the title, will help Leclerc, if he needs help, or we will witness a relationship Prost - Mansell from the 1990 season?

As always, it will be all together answered the time. This one will also reveal whether it has Hag decided correctly or not. Whatever the outcome, however Cebu I wish you all the best. 14 wins with Ferrari puts him on the eternal scale of reds. I would earn a lot more, but when I run out will and readiness carry the burden and when you feel cramped in your overalls, it’s definitely time for a change.
