Sebastian Vettel and Zak Brown
The 2020 F1 season was surely was of the uncertain ones, having had a relatively predictable result. The seasons saw a major downfall for Sebastian Vettel, which resulted in his alliance with Ferrari getting over. Making his comeback in the 2021 season, with Aston Martin, not many are convinced that Vettel can re-create his golden days.
However, McLaren CEO Zak Brown isn’t one of them. He feels Vettel is going to be a powerhouse in the 2021 season, trying to avenge his loss for the previous season in the most exquisite of fashion. Zak Brown revealed Aston Martin aren’t the only team that McLaren are worried about. McLaren CEO expects the Prancing Stallion to regain their form this year and throw themselves in the thick of the mid-field battle.
He said, “Ferrari are Ferrari. they’re extremely strong and competitive, they’ve shown that through their whole period in Formula 1. There are going to be races where they are quicker than us, and hopefully more races where they are slower than us.”
McLaren CEO Zak Brown on Sebastian Vettel
Sky F1 quoted Brown saying, “Given the car that they have – they’ve got the quickest car on the grid next to the Mercedes – I think they’ll be very tough [to beat].
“I think that whole group that we were fighting with last year. We’re going to pick up right where we left off in Abu Dhabi.
“Sebastian Vettel’s a four-time champion so, while he didn’t have a great year last year. I think he’ll be on his A-game and highly motivated so we’ve got to watch all of these guys.”
Who do you think will end 2021 as the ‘best of the rest?’ Can Sebastian Vettel spearhead the charge of his new team to achieve bragging rights over the mid-field?
