"We are both German and have joined Ferrari in difficult times. There are also similarities in terms of team spirit and structure."

Vettel did not deny that he and his team are more then delighted with what they have already reached in the first part of the 2015 campaign which was preceded by some very difficult seasons.

"What we have done so far resembels to a miracle. We have exceeded our expectations."

However, the quadruple champion admitted he still needs to get acquainted with Ferrari better.

"There are still many novelties to me."
