Vettel refuses to rule out F1 return despite retirement
Four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel retired from Formula 1 after a challenging stint with Aston Martin in 2022. He was replaced by Fernando Alonso, who has achieved great success with the team. When asked about a potential comeback like other drivers such as Alonso, Nigel Mansell, and Kimi Raikkonen, Vettel did not rule it out completely, stating that all of them eventually returned to the sport.
