Ex racing driver David Coulthard keeps switching to the new racing team Aston Martin for possible. This could be “an option”, you just have to think a little bit later, said the 49-year-old Briton in the podcast “F1 Nation” F1.com and added: “At this point in his career, Vettel could be a brilliant addition to such a team.” He was still very quick and could use all of his knowledge and experience from the years Red Bull and Ferrari bring in, said the former Vice World Champion.

The project is headed by the Canadian entrepreneur Lawrence Stroll. With a group of investors, he pumped more than 600 million euros into the battered car maker. In 2021, Stroll’s current Team Racing Point, for which his son Lance also drives, will become Aston Martin’s racing team.
