Apparently the Reds have offered the four-time world champion a hefty drop in wages.

The media halls will probably remain empty during ghost races.

The factory halls are still closed, the engines are asleep, the start of the World Cup is uncertain. And what are the Formula 1 teams doing: They are already working on the pairings for 2021.

Six test days in Barcelona, a ghost performance in the Melbourne paddock and a Coronavirus case at McLaren – so far this is the season record in a circus that deserves this name more and more.

Be careful with numbers in Formula 1
If nothing is going on, then you just drop the “bombs” everywhere. Like the sports newspaper “Gazzetta dello Sport”, which is very close to Ferrari.
–
Sebastian Vettel (32) is said to have rejected a first offer from the Reds. There is talk of 12 million euros for a one-year contract. That would only be about a third of the previous fee. Incidentally, numbers in Formula 1 should always be taken with great care.

Vettel insists on three-year contract
It is interesting that Ferrari team boss Binotto said in Australia: «We’ll wait for the first four races, then we’ll talk to Sebastian. We want clarity quickly! » He probably meant four canceled races: Australia, Bahrain, Vietnam and China …

Vettel, who won 14 World Championship races for Ferrari, apparently continues to press for a three-year contract alongside Charles Leclerc, who was under contract until 2024.

McLaren, Mercedes, back to Red Bull…
Vettel hardly has any good alternatives. A move to McLaren (where Sainz and Norris have already been confirmed for 2021!) Would be a relegation. In addition to Hamilton to Mercedes or beside Verstappen back to Red Bull – it would be an Ascension Command for the German.

What remains for the four-time champion: cheaper to drive for Ferrari or retirement. GP observer Bernie Ecclestone (89) on BLICK: “Sebastian needs to know that Ferrari will be counting on Leclerc in the future.”

Start of the season in Spielberg?
In Austria, more and more dreams of the 2020 World Cup start on July 5 in Spielberg. All 400 employees on the Red Bull Ring race track have now been tested there for the corona virus.
–
They even want to run a second race there on July 8th. “It will be a pure TV event that will be broadcast for everyone by our own Formula 1 television station,” said Bull Sports Director Helmut Marko (76). Probably means: All TV channels with their crews would be excluded – like all print media and photographers.
–
And the arrival? Marko: “With valid corona tests with charter and private airlines from all over Europe, everyone could land directly next to the route in Zeltweg.” Red Bull billionaire Dietrich Mateschitz (75) is the only private GP organizer who could afford a ghost race. Sequel follows …
