Sebastian Vettel emerges as answer to Red Bull’s second seat woes
Sebastian Vettel is not planning an F1 comeback to drive for Red Bull; instead, he might assume a more influential role within the team. Having led Red Bull to championship victories and won consecutive titles from 2010 to 2013, Vettel later departed for Ferrari in pursuit of a fifth drivers’ title. Following his retirement in 2022, speculation arose about Vettel returning not only as a driver but in an official capacity with Red Bull. Vettel has confirmed engaging in discussions with Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko about potentially taking over Marko’s role within the team. With Red Bull facing challenges with their second driver and anticipating a future without Max Verstappen, Vettel’s experience and perspective could offer a vital contribution to Red Bull’s F1 success, bridging the gap between seasoned expertise and emerging talent.
