Arrivabene moved by Vettel and Schumacher similarities

Ferrari team principal Maurizio Arrivabene revealed that he became emotional when he witnessed the striking similarities between Sebastian Vettel and the sport's (and Maranello's) most successful driver Michael Schumacher.

Speaking to Italian media after a triumphant weekend in Malaysia, Arrivabene said, "When I noticed it for the first time. I was very emotional."

"They have different natures, different personalities," said Arrivabene, "but the way Sebastian approaches his work - delving into every detail of how he can motivate everyone and criticise constructively - reminds me of Michael."

"Both share the same cultural background and this perfectionism, which they have brought to Ferrari," added the Ferrari team boss.
