Bottas has got unfinished business in Formula 1. At 32, he’s still young (he’s replacing Kimi Raikkonen who turns 42 next month). He’s got a hunger to compete and feels like he’s got more to prove, not just to the outside world but also, more importantly, to himself.
That’s why he caught up with old boss Fred Vasseur, whom he raced for in F3 and GP3 and is currently in charge at Alfa Romeo, to hear what his plans were for the future. Vasseur was very persuasive.
