Aston Martin Team has officially announced that the 2022 season will continue to maintain the driver combination of Sebastian Vettel and Lance Stoll.
Vettel moved from Ferrari to Aston Martin this season and won the podium for the team for the first time at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix. With F1 on the verge of a new set of rules, four-time world champion Vettel will continue his journey next year with the British team.
Vettel said: "I'm really looking forward to racing with a new generation of F1 cars, it looks very different and the new technical rules should make our car closer to our opponents than they are now. ”
"For drivers and fans, more exciting races will be good. The change is so great that every team will start all over again. So it's a really good opportunity for aston Martin. I believe in the strength of our new growing team, so I'm already looking forward to the 2022 season. ”
At the same time, Stoll added: "Next year I will start my sixth season in F1 with my team-mate Vettel and I am very much looking forward to continuing with him next year. We haven't reached the goal we set this year, but it will only make us more hungry for success next season. ”
Vettel and Aston Martin initially signed a 1+1 contract, and the two sides chose to continue working together for the 2022 season. Speaking about the driver line-up for the 2022 season, team leader Saffner said: "Stoll is one of the most talented drivers in F1 today and now in addition to his talent, he has also accumulated some real racing skills. ”
"Vettel, a four-time world champion driver, who has competed in 271 grands prix and won 53 of them, is a huge asset for our team and we hope that next year both of them will have good results in the new season."
"We never underestimate our opponents, so we're not going to commit too much. But we know that Stoll and Vettel will do their best in the conditions we offer. ”
