Mercedes are searching for a new driver for 2025 and beyond after Lewis Hamilton announced in February he was quitting for Ferrari after 11 years with the Silver Arrows.
Vettel, who won his four drivers바카라 titles with Red Bull between 2010 and 2013, left F1 at the end of the 2022 campaign after six years at Ferrari and two with Aston Martin.
Now, though, the 36-year-old has suggested he could return to the sport after speaking to a number of team bosses up and down the paddock.
바카라I am speaking to Toto. I don바카라t know if that qualifies as Mercedes, but about other things,바카라 the German told Sky Sports News.
바카라I바카라m talking to a lot of people because I know them, but not very specific. I mean obviously it does cross my mind, I do think about it, but it바카라s not the main thought.
바카라I have three kids at home, it바카라s busy every day, so there바카라s a lot of other thoughts I have. There바카라s ideas that I have.
바카라Events that I바카라m planning going forwards, so I did speak to a lot of other team principals as well, and not only about racing. There바카라s thoughts, but nothing concrete at the minute.바카라
A seat at a top team could help Vettel make a decision to return to the grid and he admits he was caught out by Hamilton바카라s decision to swap Mercedes for Ferrari after winning six world championships with the team.
바카라I was surprised, like I guess most of us were,바카라 he said.
바카라But it is exciting. Obviously he바카라s looking for a new challenge and it will be different to see him in red, in a different colour.바카라
Meanwhile, Vettel has been testing a different kind of race car having spent time in the Porsche contender for the Le Mans 24 Hours.
바카라Maybe, I don바카라t know yet,바카라 he replied when asked if he could make his first appearance in the famous endurance race this year.
바카라I바카라ve been testing. I was curious, so I wanted to see how it feels. It바카라s obviously a different discipline. It바카라s still racing, but it바카라s a different car, different discipline.
