Engaged in various initiatives related to sustainability, the fourth champion German can imagine even holding a position linked to actions with this bias within the category
He retired in 2022, but remains connected to through sustainability. Last year, in addition to honoring the piloting of Brazilian legend in Imola, he led a group of garbage pickers to create a giant helmet of recycled materials brought to Interlagos at the São Paulo GP. Engaged in various initiatives of the type, the German four -time champion can imagine even holding a position linked to sustainable actions within the F1. “Yes, in fact, I have been talking a little informally to Stefano (Domenicali), who is Formula 1 CEO, and trying to understand if there are some things we can do together,” said the former pilot in contact with the press during Rio Innovation Week, Latin America’s largest technology and innovation event.
“We did the projects around Ayrton and his death, to remember him and ensure it is such a powerful story, so many good things, not only on the track, but also out of it, to be remembered. Also teach the next generation of drivers to remember that there is more to pilot than just sitting in the car. So, we’ll see. During the conversation, Vettel also gave his opinion about the Brazilian, surrounded by expectations since he became a sauber pilot. German believes that next year, when the team will become Audi, it will be possible to better evaluate the potential of the 20 -year -old, but believes he is on the right track.
“I think he needs to keep his feet on the ground, but he is doing a good job. I think he took a while to adapt, but he is becoming increasingly consistent, more comfortable and familiar with the team. Obviously, there are many different things in formula 1 when you start, so give time to him will have time and we will see that next year there will be a big change to the team, with a different name, different people, and we will see.
