However, Vettel’s retirement has not silenced rumours about a shock return to the sport, especially as German manufacturer, Audi, prepares to join F1 in 2026.

Audi will complete their full takeover of Sauber next year, as the manufacturer expand their operations to the UK with a reported engineering hub in ‘motorsport valley’, alongside a Swiss base at Hinwil, and a power unit operation in Neuburg.
