Ferrari en Sebastian Vettel zorgden voor het nieuws van de dag door aan te kondigen dat de Duitser eind dit jaar de Scuderia verlaat. Uit de autosportwereld kwamen heel wat reacties op het nieuws …
Seb definitely talking with at least one other team so this can’t be just about retirement. The release makes it clear it’s not about money. It obviously can’t be about this season’s performance. So must be about status and controls generated from the bruising incidents of 2019 https://t.co/M5widTn75S

Ferrari and Seb to part ways at the end of this season. Big news, obviously, and reading these quotes I wonder if Seb might be about to retire? And if it’s not about the money, what were the reasons why BOTH said it was time to part ways? https://t.co/sy5kj3J95P

I’ll take a punt on this. Sainz to Ferrari. Ricciardo to McLaren. Vettel or Alonso to Renault. I’ll miss Seb if he retires, quality guy, quality driver. A champion and an adult.

Side effect of Seb leaving Ferrari is that Lewis has now got more power in his negotiations with Merc…. or Ferrari??!!

Uiteraard was er ook de reactie van teamgenoot Charles Leclerc waarover we eerder al schreven:
It's been a huge honor for me to be your team mate. We've had some tense moments on tracks. Some very good ones and some others that didn't end as we both wanted, but there was always respect, even though it wasn't perceive this way from the outside.

I've never learnt so much as I did with you as my teammate.
Thank you for everything Seb. pic.twitter.com/jRHEsvMYvg— Charles Leclerc (@Charles_Leclerc) May 12, 2020
