Sebastian Vettel reigned the sport a little more than a decade ago as he won a staggering 4 world championships in-a-row. Vettel retired from Formula 1 at the end of last season with a famous video. The legend talked about wanting to spend more time with his family and capping off his illustrious career in the video.

Karun Chandhok, a former F1 driver himself and now a Sky Sports pundit, spoke about Vettel’s possible return to the grid. “My gut feeling is, [when] I met Sebastian at the Festival of Speed, he was there with his family. They’d driven over from Germany in a camper van to England in the summer, and I think he was just enjoying his time with his three kids” remarked Chandhok.

He claimed his gut feeling counts out any ‘Vettel comeback’ but as is often true in the world of Formula 1, you never know. “So the gut feeling I had is he won’t come back, but you never know, right?” added Karun. The fact that Seb is having the time of his life with his kids and his family will come as a wholesome news for his fans. We, at Firstportz, are equally delighted.
