Sebastian Vettel, sensational contact in F1

.

Sebastian Vettel ponders a return to Formula 1. The four-time world champion, 36, admitted in an interview with the Neue Zürcher Zeitung that he is tempted by a possible return to the premier class of motorsport, especially now that the change of regulations is approaching: moreover, the domino in the drivers’ market set in motion by the transfer ofLewis Hamilton to Ferrari could favor him.

Vettel admits: "Messages with Wolff"

"I was surprised by Hamilton’s move to Ferrari. The Mercedes? Toto Wolff didn’t call me, but we exchanged some messages – he admitted – For now I have no plans about that, but at 36 years old I still have all the time in the world. In this year without races I have also learned and understood a lot about myself", explained the German driver.

Vettel: "Return? Maybe the time will come" "

Vettel admitted that his return to racing è possible: "Maybe the time will come when I will say I would like to come back. It will happen; when he’ll have put things in order mentally and everything will make sense again. So there’è not a categorical no, but not a categorical sì either. And in the meantime, I’m going to go for my medical examination to renew my license for motorsport…".

Mercedes: Hamilton’s possible replacements

Vettel è among the possible candidates to succeed Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes. Other hot names include Carlos Sainz, Esteban Ocon, Valtteri Bottas and also the very youngAndrea Kimi Antonelli, currently in Formula 2. Given Alonso’s brilliant return to F1 at 39, Vettel’s name è more current than ever.
