Sebastian Vettel who has said goodbye to the sport after the end of 2022 has revealed that he is not going to hold back in any way in the remaining races of the season and is going to fight as much as possible.
Sebastian Vettel the former four-time Formula One World Champion made it public during the Hungarian Grand Prix that he is going to quit F1 at the end of 2022 saying his priorities have changed and want to spend more time with his family.
Vettel has been an absolute legend of the sport and after his tenure of around 16 years, he is sitting in 7th position on the all-time list of most F1 starts with 290.
If the German maestro manages to start in all the remaining races of the 2022 season, he will take his tally to a total of 299 race starts which is an exceptional achievement in itself.

Sebastian Vettel is determined to say sayonara to the sport in style
Vettel has got nine races left in his Formula One career and while talking about it, Vettel has said, “I will not back off until the end, I know how this job needs to be done.”
“And that’s how I would like to do it to the end.”
“Seeing the people around the grandstands is nice because, I’d probably not have that type of feeling again, but then again, I’ve been lucky to have had it for so many years.”
“So everything comes to an end. My story will end at the end of the year and another story will begin.“
Sebastian Vettel is excited about the second leg of the 2022 season and while stessing over how Aston Martin has performed this season, Vettel said, “last two years, I find it very hard [to fight] for points.”
“I think everybody is [looking forward to the summer break], and then I think we will try to have a better [car on a] Saturday.”
“That’s our weakness and [on] Sunday we can be very strong.”
“So there seems to be some homework to do.”
Aston Martin has so far in the current season scored 20 points and of them, 16 have been scored by Sebastian Vettel. Moreover, Vettel believes that the team has been hampered by their performance on Saturdays and feels that they get the best out of the AMR22 on race days.
Vettel has stated that the Lawrence-stroll-owned team has got a lot of work to do and considering that F1 is in a period of a 1-month break, it is going to be interesting to see what kind of a package the Silverstone-based team is able to provide to the departing Sebastian Vettel.
