Vettel on racing return: “You can never rule it out, age was not the issue”
Four-time Formula 1 champion, Sebastian Vettel, retired from racing last year but has been linked to potential racing opportunities. Vettel acknowledged that while he could never rule out a return to the sport, there will come a time when it is over for him. He retired at a young age of 36, prioritizing spending more time with his family and children. Vettel expressed that Formula 1 has become smaller to him, as he has rediscovered the world and himself in recent years. He won 53 F1 grands prix and four consecutive titles with Red Bull, but after a switch to Ferrari, he was unable to replicate his success. Although curious about his next career plan, Vettel intends to take time to try everything and discover different aspects of himself before pursuing the next task directly. He mentioned that the environment and sustainability will continue to be important to him, and he could potentially explore opportunities in that direction. Vettel has recently been linked to a test for the British Jota team in the World Endurance Championship, led by fellow German Dieter Gass.
