Sebastian Vettel's adventure at Ferrari didn't run as he had hoped. After years of success, the German exchanged Red Bull for the Italian race stable, but failed to lead Scuderia to the world title. Despite this he still stands behind his choice.

"No, I certainly don't regret my move to Ferrari, that's the truth. I hate how everything ended at Red Bull. The contract situation made it uncomfortable at the end. We had a fantastic time together, that's why it hurt to leave the team after those beautiful years", he says in front of the cameras of Sky Sports. Vettel was extremely successful on behalf of the Austrians, resulting in four titles between 2010 and 2013.

Ferrari always a dream 

It sparked the interest of Ferrari. "Ferrari has always been a dream for me. When they came forward, it led to a brainwash for me. When a team like that comes forward, it's great. My mission was to win the World Cup title at Ferrari as well. We've failed, but we've achieved enough highlights."
