Three new drivers have been added to the grid: Logan Sargeant, Nyck de Vries, and Nico Hulkenberg, who are replacing Sebastian Vettel, Daniel Ricciardo, and Mick Schumacher.

The entire silly season started when Sebastian Vettel decided to retire from the sport. Almost immediately, Fernando Alonso was appointed by Aston Martin, forcing Alpine to announce Oscar Piastri. However, Oscar Piastri denied the team's offer to go to McLaren and replace Daniel Ricciardo. Finally, Pierre Gasly went to Alpine and Nyck de Vries got his chance to drive in F1 through AlphaTauri.

Meanwhile, Mick Schumacher parted ways with the Haas F1 team and was replaced by Nico Hulkenberg. The same happened with Nicholas Latifi, who was replaced by Logan Sargeant, who will be starting his F1 career in 2023.

Sebastian Vettel feels he will return to F1 someday

Sebastian Vettel recently received the Gregor Grant Lifetime Achievement Award at the Autosport Awards. The German had an amazing F1 career with four world titles and 53 race victories.

After winning the award, he spoke to Motorsport.com and expressed how he could return to the sport in the future. He said:

“I’m sure I’ll be back at some point to have a look. I love the sport, I love the people. It will be probably a difficult or weird moment to be there live and not participate. But I guess it’s coming. So yeah, I don’t know. I have no plans yet. But I’m sure it will be somewhere, sometime.”

Of course, the former Aston Martin driver has also shown interest in raising awareness towards environmental issues and spending quality time with his family for now. He explained how he is unsure about returning, but he is still excited about the future. Vettel said:

"I have lots of ideas, lots of things that I want to do and spend my time with, but then I’ll see what happens from there. I guess you can never say never. But I thought about this step for a long time, and it feels like the right thing. So I’m very excited about what’s coming, even though there’s nothing signed or set in stone."
