The four-time F1 champion has teased a potential comeback amid the driver mark🥃et ramping up ahead of 2025, when Lewis Hamilton will go to Ferrar🐽i.
Mercedes still hav🦹e a s🉐ignificant vacancy to fill, as a result.
Marko 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 somewher🌺e,.
"Then he's ready for it."
But Vett♓el will not find space at Red Bull, th🐈e team where he won his four consecutive Formula 1 championships, Marko confirmed.
Although Sergio Perez’s contract as𒅌 Max Verstappen’s teammate is expiring, he iཧs in-form and in the mix for a renewal.
Ferrari, where Vettel underwhelmed after a high-profile switch in 2015, have locked in Hamilton ౠand Charles Leclerc for next year and beyond.
Aston Martin, Vettel’s final F1 team before his retirement in 2022, have tied down Fernando Alon𒆙so, removing a key seat and a major driver option from the market.
McLaren are�🐷� assured of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri.
It leaves Mercedes as the only possibꦦꦆility in one of the better F1 cars for next year.
Vettel’s hero Michael Schumacher came out of retirement to spearhead a🎶 new era at Mercedes successfully.
But Andrea Kimi Antonelli and Carlos Sainz are also ♎options for Mercedes to replace Hamilton.
Audi are a German powerhouse who may want a German le⛄gend but they do𒅌 not enter F1 properly until 2016, and will continue running as Sauber next year.
Vettel is still only 36. This ಞis 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 wants to drive a car again,” Ralf Schumacher previo♓usly told .
Vettel told&n༒bsp;earlier this season that an F1 return “depe✅nds on the package”.
He said: "I retired from Formula 1 not to come back, but I a♎lso did say that you never know. So I think it still stands.
"Obvious𒅌ly, there's things that I miss, which is mostly the competition. And things that I don't miss, 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 : "I'm having thouꦰghts that are crossing my mind and thinking abou꧅t [a return].”
