Vettel opens up on F1 retirement plans

Vettel opens up on F1 retirement plans

"I judge things with a little more distance and not so quickly. It's the luxury of having a few years on the clock.

"I do not intend to retire in the foreseeable future. I enjoy racing a lot.

"But I think it's normal that, 12 years later, I sometimes try to look ahead and think about what comes next. I don't think it's a good idea to just stop something that was so life-defining without an idea of how to go on.

"You should feel comfortable with the decision and be able to say: Enough! It's not ideal when the time is dictated from the outside.

"For me it is clear – once I stop, then I stop and will not come back. You have to be happy and be able to say: That's it."
