Sebastian Vettel staying in Formula 1 beyond 2020 is “great” not just for Formula 1, but for Toto Wolff as well. It was announced at Mugello, where Ferrari was celebrating its 1000th race, that Vettel is switching to the rebranded Aston Martin project from 2021. Wolff is the Mercedes team boss, but he also recently bought some Aston Martin shares. When asked about Vettel’s move, Wolff smiled to TZ newspaper: “I have shares in Aston Martin, so it’s great from that perspective. “He also brings an enormous amount of knowledge to Aston Martin.”. There have been rumours that, with Vettel now signed, Wolff may also decide to move on to Aston Martin – with the pair then potentially wooing Red Bull’s famous designer Adrian Newey.
