Sebastian Vettel drops hint he may replace Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes | F1 | Sport

“I’ve had conversations with him (Wolff),” Vettel added. “Not really about the seat. We did speak about the whole situation in short as well. But I did speak to others as well because I’m still keeping in touch every now and then. I have some projects and ideas together with F1. We’ll see if they will turn out or not.

“So I am staying in touch. I don’t know. It has to be a couple more phone calls and conversations, I guess, to really find out a little bit more. But for sure it’s one of the best seats on the grid.

“Performance-wise, Mercedes has a great track record, struggling a little bit in the last years, but then struggle and you’re still second and third in the constructors’ (championship), it’s not like you’re racing in no man’s land.”
