Formula 1 becomes a way of life for people associated with the sport. Naturally, for 4x champion, Sebastian Vettel, who spent over a decade in F1, this sport is all that he knows. That being said, every good thing in life comes to an end. And so, at the end of the 2022 Formula 1 season, Vettel bowed out of the sport and hung up his racing helmet. It’s been a good six months since the German Weltmeister said goodbye to his fans. But how’s he been coping?

In a recent interview with Bild, the 35-year-old spoke about many things close to his heart. Chief amongst them were his family and the sport he has left behind. He was quoted as saying, “So far, I’m doing very well with my decision [to leave F1]. But what I miss most is the competition and the tension.”
