Sebastian Vettel’s high-profile arrival at Aston Martin shone a “spotlight” on a particular part of their F1 team.
Four-time F1 champion Sebastian Vettel criticized the strategy of his former team, Ferrari, where he was disappointed and failed to add to his titles from Red Bull. When he joined Aston Martin for the 2021 season, the strategists had to quickly establish a bond with him. The relationship was initially daunting due to Vettel’s past criticisms, but he turned out to be kinder in person than expected. Vettel had a good understanding of strategy and a strong memory of past races, which helped him communicate effectively with his race engineer. After two years at Aston Martin, Vettel retired from F1, while his strategist Bernie Collins now shares her knowledge of race strategy on Sky Sports.
