“I am really looking forward to racing the new generation of Formula One cars,” Vettel said following his contract extension with Aston Martin.
“Their look is very different and the new technical regulations should give us cars that can race much more closely than recently.
“More exciting racing will be great for the drivers as well as for the fans. The changes are so big that every team will be starting from a new beginning.”
