F1 2020 70th Anniversary Grand Prix - Thursday Drivers Press Conference | Charles Leclerc, Sebastian Vettel
Location: Silverstone Circuit, Silverstone, United Kingdom

Vettel tight-lipped on Racing Point links after being spotted with team boss.

A rumour emerged in the aftermath of the British Grand Prix that Sebastian Vettel had shared a car ride with Otmar Szafnauer, CEO and Team Principal of the Racing Point team which Vettel is said to be in talks with about a drive for next year. But while Vettel confirmed that he had indeed shared a car with Szafnauer, he said that he had “no news” to announce about his future.

Since it was confirmed that he was to be let go by Ferrari at the end of 2020, Racing Point have emerged as the frontrunning option for Vettel for next year should he decide to stay in Formula 1, as the team prepare to become the Aston Martin works squad.

And although Vettel’s car share with Szafnauer – and pre-race elbow bump with team owner Lawrence Stroll – set tongues wagging last weekend, the German remained coy about the whole affair.
