Vettel fulfills dream with Ferrari move

-

SEBASTIAN Vettel looked forward to following in Michael Schumacher’s Formula One footsteps after Ferrari confirmed yesterday that the four times world champion would replace Fernando Alonso next season on a three-year deal. The longawaite­d news, an open secret since the German announced in October that he was leaving Red Bull, formally ended a five-year love affair with double world champion Alonso that frustrated both sides. Vettel will partner Finland’s 2007 world champion Kimi Raikkonen, who has a year remaining on his contract.
