Earlier in the month Vettel jokingly told Italy's Gazzetta dello Sport that he'd fork out money drive Fernando Alonso's "red car"."I'm happy at Red Bull but I dream of Ferrari," said the German
"I would pay a year's holiday to (Ferrari driver) Alonso to have the red car."
Alonso says he is not surprised that the 23-year-old would like to join the Scuderia.
"Vettel dreams of racing for Ferrari? All drivers have that dream. Some actually say it, but all think of it," Alonso is quoted as saying by Gazzetta dello Sport
Shifting focus to the upcoming season, Alonso insists he is happy with the progress the team is making.
"We are in a good position, we know we still need to improve as the competition in fierce, but we are at a good stage," he explained.
"All the tests with the F150 have gone well, we are very optimistic ahead of the season opener in Australia.
"From what we have seen so far, we are in a good position. But we still need to grow because the other teams will be competitive. We keep the faith, all is proceeding well," he added.
