Will Sebastian Vettel race for Ferrari?

[Afterburner]

My bet is that Massa will be to Alonso the same Barrichello was to Schumacher, when Alonso time at Ferrari end i think Ferrari will call Kubica and Hamilton to join, Vettel it's just too arrogant to be a "Ferrari team player", honestly i would prefer Rosberg from Vettel.

What kind of thread is this anyway, Bruno Senna will drive for Ferrari before that happens...

He was quite stunning in monaco 2008 and also china 2008 as I recall. Or China 2007. Fuji 2007 he was en route to a podium but there were some controversial moves by Hamilton and Webber (if I recall correctly) that caused Vettel to crash into Webber

lol vettel just took his eye off the ball like he did in hungary and caught napping.

Given the historic and potentially sentimental ties Bruno has with his uncle, I think we'd sooner see Bruno drive for McLaren

The question is "Will Sebastian Vettel race for Ferrari?", if you can't or don't have a response for that please don't slag other drivers or Vettel himself. It's rather simple really.

I think we won't see Vettel live out his F1 life with Red Bull. I see that happening with Lewis at McLaren, but not Vettel. I think he'll move to either McLaren, Ferrari, or perhaps even Merc. One, or maybe two of these teams.

Why I posted in the simpliest way possible, that will never happen, for rather obvious reasons esteemed moderator.

So you are saying there are better chances for him to go to Mclaren with hamilton then?
I don't think he wants that. He can't even manage mark how can he manage Hamilton?

From what I understand Ferrari wants the best at any cost. They'll have Hamilton someday. Hamilton grew with Mclaren, but 2 or 3 championships is more than enough for them from him. He will leave after he gets that Mclaren F1 LM.
Ferrari want him more than they do Vettel. Santander are used to him, and he sure can do a better job getting the ferrari cars sold.

Vettel will stay at redbull until he is satisfied he gets the most championships he can with them. As long as Newey is there, Vettel will stay.

+1 Good post.

Despite (because of?) all the Ferrari haters out there, Ferrari still has some sort of magic that attracts (nearly) all top drivers. I'm a tifosi and even I don't get it. One thing, until very recently, Ferrari did little to nurture young drivers. They just found the best and pulled out the check book. Maybe that will change (but I doubt it).

IF Vettel continues to mature, I would be surprised if he does NOT drive for Ferrari one day. Hamilton I'm less sure of.

I do. and i am sensing, it wont be ferrari, but Mclaren to pull the german to put him with hamilton alongside by 2014.

Ferrari Will/should go on for years with their current pair.

Vettel will stay with Red Bull as long as they are competitive. I can see this being the case until 2012. From 2013 we will have a new formula that will place more emphasis on the engine development. I can imagine that Ferrari, Mercedes or even Cosworth will gain advantages from that formula but not Renault and Red Bull. Red Bull can change the engine partner but they can only hope that Cosworth comes out on top. Ferrari and Merc are not likely to give them engines if they are the top engine manufacturer. So Vettel's choices past 2012 should be guided by keeping his options open. That is something that applies for all top drivers.

The way I figure, Vettel is way too germanic to fit in at Ferrari, to accommodate MS they had to rebuild the entire team, remember? Besides, Alonso will suerly see out hs career with the scuderia, why I feel the question is rather academic.

[PNSD]

WB-where is your logic from this about Renault?

They have won plenty of championships before, why do you expect them to fall when new regulations come along?

True, as long as Adrian is there, they'll never opt for ferrari engine!

whats the status on BMW engines? heard something about Mclaren taking over Beemers motor plant.

Please read. I said I don't think Vettel will live out life at Red Bull. But I think Lewis will live it out at McLaren.
