What Will Sebastian Vettel Talk About in His Upcoming Interview?

The four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel and Scuderia Ferrari have decided to end the mutual contract in 2020. This subject is trending to be on top of all the news revolving around the world of Formula One.

Ferrari has appointed Carlos Sainz from McLaren as their second driver for the 2021 season. Ferrari will be moving ahead with Carlos Sainz and the Monégasque racing driver, Charles Leclerc.

Recently, the current Ferrari’s German driver has requested for a press conference on Thursday. What is he going to announce? With every gate being shut, will it be a new team? Or a sabbatical?

The German driver joined Ferrari in 2015 from the Redbull after a not so great season in 2014. He finished 5th after becoming the World Champion for the fourth time in the 2013 season.

He finished 3rd, 4th, 2nd, 2nd, and 5th from 2015-2019 respectively with Ferrari.

The last 2019 season looked horrific for Sebastian Vettel where he finished 5th. Hence, Ferrari decided to put an end to this relationship after 5 years.

Since it was announced, the rumors of joining almost all the teams in the paddock came into everyone’s eyes. Additionally, nothing resulted in a positive sign for the driver.

The German driver opened himself to drive in the 2021 season if he has a good contract with a competitive team.

Toto Wolff gave a slight rumor about Vettel to Mercedes making it a dream line-up with Lewis Hamilton. But on the other hand, Ola Kallenius maintained that Mercedes is likely to stick with its current lineup.

The German Driver showed an interest in joining his ex-team Redbull. But the speculation was duly denied by the Team Principal Christian Horner.

He stated “Obviously the topic has been raised, we had a brilliant time with Seb, he’ll forever be a part of our history, but we didn’t expect him to be on the market this year, and our commitment is to our existing drivers.

“We think we have a great pairing in Max and Alex, and we think that has great potential for the future as well, so, unfortunately, it’s not something that we’re going to be able to accommodate.”

Racing Point, not too dissimilar to Red Bull denied the news as well. They stated that they have long term contracts with their current drivers and have no space available.

Meanwhile, the German driver is only 33. Vettel clearly believes he has a lot left to achieve.

What will this announcement be about? A new team? Or will it be sabbatical for a year and return in 2022 season?

Let’s wait for the final interview on Thursday.
