Sebastian Vettel has been backed to turn around his form by Ferrari’s top boss after the four-time world champion’s season lurched to a fresh low at the Italian GP.
Vettel’s early spin out of fourth place — and resultant pit-lane penalty for what was deemed by stewards to be a “dangerous” clash on his return to the track with Lance Stroll — came on the day team-mate Charles Leclerc ended Ferrari’s nine-year wait for a home Monza success with a stirring win in front of the Tifosi.
Vettel’s latest errors add to a series of mistakes in race conditions over the last two seasons — but Ferrari’s chief executive, Louis Camilleri, insists people are unwise to write off one of the F1’s most-successful ever drivers. Speaking to Sky Sports F1 as Ferrari celebrated Monza victory, Camilleri admitted “we’re going to have to lift his spirits” but insisted: “I don’t like the fact that people are trying to write off Seb.
“He’s an amazing driver and I have every confidence that Seb’s going to come back.”
Camilleri’s view was shared by Mercedes’ Toto Wolff, who does not doubt that Vettel will return to his best form.
“Don’t write him off, because he’s a four-time world champion,” said Wolff to reporters. — Skysports.
