Helmut Marko on Sebastian Vettel F1 comeback: “I think he wants it, if…”
Sebastian Vettel comeback rumours restart at thꦆe F1🤪 Chinese Grand Prix

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sebastian Vettel &n𓆏bsp;wants an F1 return, but only in a front-runni𓃲ng car, claims Red Bull’s Helmut Marko.
T📖he four-time F1 champion has teased a potential comeback amid the driver market ramping up ahead of 2025, when Lewis Hamilton will go to Ferrari.
Mercedes still have a significant ♏vacancy to fill, as a result.
Maꦚrko told on Friday at the F1 Chinese Grand Prix about Vettel’s wish to return to the grid: "I think he wants it if he sees the chance to get a top car somewhere,.
"Then he's ready for it."
But Vettel will not find space at 𝓡Red Bull, the team where he won his four consecutive Formula 1 championships, Marko confirmed.
Although Sergio Perez’s contract as Max Verstappen’s teammate is expiring, he is in-form and in the mix for ꦫa renewal.
Ferra🦋ri, where Vettel underwhelmed after a high-profile switch in 2015, have locked in Hamilton and Charles Leclerc for next year 🔯and beyond.
Aston Martin, Vettel’s final F1 team before his retirement in 2022, have tied down Fernando Alonso, removing a key se♔at and a major driver option from the market.
Mc෴Laren are assured of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri.
It leaves🍸 Mercedes as the only possibility in one of the better F1 cars for next year.
Vettel’🐠s hero Michael Schumacher came out of retirement to sp💎earhead a new era at Mercedes successfully.
But Andrea Kimi Antonelli and Carlos Sainz are also options for Merceဣdes to replace Hamilton.
Audi are a German powerhouse who may want a Germa🤡n legend but they do not enter F1 properly until 2016, and will continue running as Sauber next year.
Vet𒊎tel is still only 36. This is the second season 🐓without him on the grid since his retirement.
But the noises around a comeback have got louder.
"I heard that Sebastian Vettel wan💜ts to drive a car again,” Ralf Schumacher previously𒁏 told .
Vettel told earlie🅺r this sea🅺son that an F1 return “depends on the package”.
He said: "I retired fromဣ Formula 1 not to come back, but I 𝕴also did say that you never know. So I think it still stands.
"Obviously, there's things that I miss, which is mostly the competition. And things that I don't mi🌳ss, so that hasn't changed. Obviously, life is very different if you're not involved and I do enjoy that still.”
Vettel added to the&n🐽bsp;: "I'm having thoughts that are crossing my mind and thinking about [a re💙turn].”
