Wolff would not be against Vettel's arrival at Mercedes

Si Mercedes took its time to confirm Nico Rosberg's replacement, the star-studded team finally confirmed Valtteri Bottas who had long been expected to evolve alongside Lewis Hamilton. The German manufacturer has nevertheless made contact with numerous pilots, but Sebastian Vettel was not in the list of potential suitors.

“Sebastian is someone who is very loyal to his employer, commented Toto wolff, the executive chairman of Mercedes Motorsport, in the Stuttgarter Zeitung. When Nico retired, he was not on the list of drivers interested in driving. He only said it was surprising. He focuses on his work at Ferrari."

Toto Wolff would not be opposed to the arrival of the four-time world champion in his ranks, even if he is focusing on the future of his team with Valtteri Bottas who only has a one-year contract with Mercedes.

“We'll see what the future brings, but it would be a mistake not to include Sebastian on this list. It's pretty cool to imagine a four-time German world champion driving a Mercedes. But, as far as I know, this is unlikely to happen any time soon.", said the Austrian.
