Helmut Marko has revealed that 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sebastian Vettel has “repeatedly enquired” about making a return to F1 with Red Bull.

Vettel bowed out of F1 at the end of 2022 following two lacklustre seaso🔴ns with Aston Martin.

ღEven though he’s been out of the sport, Vettel has been linked with a possible return.

Audi was mooted as one option as they looked for a German driver, ultimately opting for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Hulkenberg.

However🔯, the competitiveness of Audi - and the fact they don’t 🐼come into F1 until 2026 - was likely off-putting for Vettel.

But it seems like Vette𝐆l would have made a comeback if it wa🐟s with Red Bull.

In an interview with  ,🐬 Marko claime🤡d that Vettel expressed interest in replacing Sergio Perez.

“[Vettel] has repeatedly enquired with us, but I don't think it would be pleasant for him to driv𓆏e next to Max Verstappen,” Marko sဣaid.

"If I'm correctly informed, he seems to be moving towards Porsche and long-distance racing. I think that would be a very nꦯic꧒e step for him."

Red Bull are likely to retain Perez, with numerous reports suggꦺesting a deal could be announced w💃ithin the next few weeks.

Perez has been with the team since 2021, acting as a solid support driver to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen.

However, ༒Red Bull will need to be wary given McLaren and Ferrari’s improved form in the early races of 2024.

Perez slipped to fifth in the drivers’ championship after hꦦis DNF at the Mona𒁏co Grand Prix.

Since retiring, Vettel has made a number of F1 paddock appea♉rances, most recently as Imola, leading the Ayrton Sen🔥na tributes.

Speaking to media including 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:ltxcn.top at Im൲ola, Vettel explained why he’s still content with his decis𝐆ion to retire.

“I miss great parts of it... But I don't wake up in the mornings missing those moments on the podium when people sho✤ut your name,” he added.

“I think I'm quite realistic about life and tryin꧙g to take on new challenges. I'm content and ﷽there are a lot of things that I miss, but a lot of things that I don't miss. It was a tough call when I made it but, yeah, I was thinking about coming back and I know beforehand that I would. But in the end nothing has changed so I'm still very happy with my decision.”
