Ferrari team principal Maurizio Arrivabene is confident Seba🌄stian Vettel will win a Formula 1 world championshi💜p with the Scuderia “sooner or later”.

Vettel’s 2018 title hopes have all but ended with rival Lewis Hamilton on the brink of claiming the world championship. Hamilton can seal his fifth drivers’ title at t🌜his weekend’s United States Grand Prix if he records a fifth successiveꦍ victory at the Circuit of the Americas, providing Vettel finishes third or lower.

The German’s aspirations of ending Ferrari’s barren run without title success have been curtailed following a series of mistakes and missed opportunities t▨hat have left him💮 67 points adrift of Hamilton despite looking favourite for the championship earlier in the season.

But Arrivabene has called on Ferrari to challenge the impossible and will not give up on thoughts of the Italian squad winning a first championship since 2008 until it is mathem�🐟�atically out of reach.

"It has become a mission impossible, but it's not over," Arrivabene told Gazzetta dello Sport. "And I amꦿ sure that sooner or later Sebastian Vettel will win the world championship at the wheel of Ferrari."

Arrivabene also compared Ve🎶ttel to seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, adding the four-time champion reminds him of Vettel's fellow🍎 countryman.

"I think he h⛎as someth🦄ing similar to Schumacher: he is German, but very Italian and has been close to Maranello from an early age."

F1 sporting boss Ross Brawn, who was a key figurehead in Ferrari’s dominance of the sport with Schumacher during the early 2000s, believes Hamilton is now the man most likely to go on💜 to beat the German’s all-time record.

"I never thought I would be able to say it, but Ham🐻ilton really is the one who could beat Michael Schumacher's records," Brawn said.

"He's got everything under control. The quality that unites him withও Michael and the great guys is that he knows how♑ to win races that he should lose."
