How much will Vettel earn in Aston Martin?

Sebastian Vettel has signed a new contract with Aston Martin for 2021. The team currently racing as Racing Point has not announced anything about the deal, but German media know the salary and duration of Vettel's contract.

Vettel was told at the beginning of 2020 that he had to leave Ferrari, and since then, people have been wondering what Vettel is going to do. It turns out that Aston Martin and the German Bild have more clarity about the contract. Of course, Vettel received a decent salary at Ferrari as a four-time world champion, but he has to sacrifice some of that. According to the German medium, Vettel will earn EUR 15 million a year at Aston Martin.

That is a lot less than the amount that Vettel received at Ferrari. At the Italian race stable, Vettel raised EUR 45 million a year, but with the corona crisis and its shape in recent years, the reduced salary is no surprise. In addition to the amount, there is also more clarity about the duration. According to Bild, there is no question of a multiannual deal. Only for 2021 is it clear that Vettel will be racing, but the long-term project will want to see Vettel first to stay attached to the team even longer.
