Sebastian Vettel will start a new chapter of his career at Aston Martin in 2021. For all intents and purposes, Sebastian Vettel's stay at Ferrari has tarnished his legacy to a great extent. He went to the team as a four-time world champion and left as a No. 2 driver being consistently outqualified and outraced by his younger teammate.

Many even questioned why Sergio Perez was dropped in favor of Vettel as he looked horribly out of sorts throughout the season.
Vettel talked about how at just 33, he had not forgotten how to drive fast, and it's hard to disagree with that. At Aston Martin, Vettel will be part of a new home, new surroundings, and less intra-team politics. In our view, the 2021 season would see the return of Vintage Vettel: consistent, fast, and funny. Just like old times.
So these were our 5 bold predictions before the start of the 2021 season. What's yours? Drop in a comment and do let us know!
