Amid reports of Daniel Ricciardo being 'romanced' by Ferrari to take over from Kimi Raikkonen at the end of 2019 and reunite the Aussie with Sebastian Vettel - teammates at Red Bull in 2014 - the German insists he is happy with his current teammate.
Vettel said in a recent interview of Raikkonen, "We're a good pair, a good match. There's no problem at all between us, ever. I think that's a really big bonus for the team and for us to just enjoy our job."
The four times F1 world champion added, "It's been incredibly close this year so far. To be honest, most of the Fridays I think he had the upper hand so far."
"Here and there I was struggling to understand the car and feel the car so I think knowing him, knowing his strength, he's incredibly talented and able to drive around problems."
"If you look at the previous years the image is a bit distorting. It wasn't as one-sided as you might think if you look at the results..."
We did, and it's not pleasant reading for The Iceman and his fans.
