Since Aston Martin announced that Fernando Alonso’swould be a substitute Sebastian Vettel in the Silverstone team after the withdrawal of the four-time world champion from Formula 1there have been rivers of ink about who will play a better role next to Lance Stroll.
The latest analysis has come from Peter Windsorformer head of williams Y Ferrariwho has charged hard against the German on ‘Twitch’.
First, he has criticized his performance at the ‘Scuderia’: “Instead of worrying about improving, he went to Ferrari. He arrived as the four-time world champion and was received with a lot of money and a lot of adulation from the fans.”
“and never progressed, he remained the same driver (from his successful starts with Red Bull). That is the story of Sebastian Vettel,” he added.
When comparing Vettel with Hamilton or Alonso, Windsor has no doubts: “I would never have put him on the same level as Lewis. It’s possible that if you have a really good rear end on the car I would put you up there with Fernando (Alonso), but if you have a car with a tricky rear end and you don’t have a lot of grip, Vettel is in trouble”.
“In general, throw a little crosswind on ‘Seb’, throw a little crosswind on Fernando, put a little oil on the track, put a little on the tyres… Fernando will always do a better job“, has explained.
“I always thought that Vettel was a very thoughtful and very fast driver who, even in his testing days for Sauber, was nothing more than the epitome of cornering in a V,” he added.
“And when it couldn’t do it because of the characteristic of the curve, he was a rider from the gridiron heap. However, when he could do it in a particular type of curve, he was brilliant, “she has settled.
