Fresh from his historic victory in the Italian Grand Prix last Sunday with Red Bull's sister team Toro Rosso, today Sebastian Vettel got behind the wheel of the same Red Bull Technology chassis, albeit with a different livery and engine.

Set-up work was the main item on the agenda, as the team gets to know its new driver and vice versa, in preparation for next season. Other work included data acquisition from a few new components; some time was lost in the afternoon with a gearbox problem. The young German completed 60 laps in all, signing the second-fastest time of the day.

Vettel continues testing with the Red Bull team tomorrow, before switching back to Scuderia Toro Rosso for the final day.

The trophies presented to Monza winner Sebastian Vettel and his podium cohorts seem to have contravened the 2008 Formula One sporting regulations.

Many pundits were surprised after the Italian Grand Prix, when instead of being handed traditional trophies, Vettel and his peers held aloft silvered prizes in the shape of the logo of the race's title sponsor, Banco Santander.

Upon inspection of the 2008 sporting regulations, the FIA requires Grand Prix promoters to present trophies "in the form of traditional cups.

Monza winner Sebastian Vettel is set to more than double his retainer by switching from Toro Rosso to parent team Red Bull in 2009.

Germany's Bild newspaper reports that the 21-year-old German, who became the youngest race winner of all time last weekend, will make 1.5 million euros next year.

Swiss based Motorsport Aktuell said recently that Vettel is currently the third lowest earner among the 20 race drivers, with his 600,000 euros surpassed even by Kazuki Nakajima.

But even though Michael Schumacher's manager Willi Weber believes he could help Vettel pocket 100 million euros from his career, the young racer insists he has no plans to hire a manager.

Vettel is a rare breed in F1, choosing to handle his own affairs.

"He does everything himself," his father Norbert confirmed.

Vettel, who used a single lawyer to help him with his new two-year Red Bull contract, said: "I am not going to change anything. Not at all. I don't see why I should start doing things differently now."
