Sebastian Vettel says he has ‘lots of years left’ amid Max Verstappen partnership rumours | F1 | Sport
Now in his 16th season, he is keen to drive a competitive car, but so far that hasn’t happened with Lawrence Stroll’s team. With his status beyond this season currently uncertain, Vettel shared an insight into his mentality regarding his future.
“Time will tell,” said the racer when quizzed by reporters about his likelihood of continuing to race in 2023. “At the minute, I think the focus is on now and on the mountain ahead of us that we try to climb – and we won’t climb it in day, we won’t climb it in a month.
“But we will choose the path we climb which will determine the next three to four years, so that’s why I feel it’s really important to focus on that and it takes all the attention. Those will be the key things I will be looking at to see how promising it is looking in the future and how soon, because obviously I’m not really old – I think I would have physically a lot of years left, it’s not a problem at all.”
