An early Red Bull test for Vettel

Friday 5th September 2008

Sebastian Vettel will take part in a two-day test with Red Bull later this month as he prepares for his move to Toro Rosso's sister team.

Vettel has been signed as David Coulthard's replacement at Red Bull and, due to the link between his current and future teams, is set to get an early start on testing.

Autosport reports that the German will take part in a two-day test with Red Bull on September 17 and 18, which has been confirmed by his 2009 team-mate Mark Webber.

"He will test the car in Jerez so it will be interesting to see how he goes there driving the same car, engine and electronics, that sort of stuff," Webber said.

"But it (the real comparisons) will start in February next year. Next year is so different and I am concentrating on myself, we have enough things to do and I am trying to get as many points as I can before the end of the year."
