Sebastian Vettel says quitting Formula 1 is "not an option" despite the fact that right now he is clearly under pressure at Ferrari, the 32-year-old German insists he is still enjoying driving "the fastest cars there are" and intend staying in Formula 1.
He told the German broadcaster RTL ahead of his home race at Hockenheim that quitting is not on his radar and he is adamant that "The goal is to succeed with Ferrari."
When asked specifically about reports that he is thinking about stopping at the end of 2019, the quadruple world champion added: "Well, I've never said that and I wonder who did, but it is unfounded."
Ahead of the race at Hockenheim, Vettel's future was a hot topic with his former employees, Red Bull, suggesting the four-time F1 World Champion he needs a change of scene and thus leave the Reds.
But, as he has always said, Vettel remains committed to Maranello and Formula 1 well beyond this year and that anything other than that is pure speculation. He is contracted to Ferrari until the end of 2020.
