Helmut Marko has named 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sebastian Vettel his “ideal successor” when he decides to step away from Red Bul꧂l.

Since 2005, the Austrian has been a key p♑art of Red Bull’s senior management.

He’s been responsible for seeing several talents come through their junior programme, such as Vettel, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Daniel Ricciardo and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz.

Vettel won his four F1 world titles with Red Bull before leaving tꦜhe team for Ferrari.

Si🎃milarly, all four of Verstappen’s titles have 🦹been with the Milton Keynes-based outfit.

At 81, Marko 🅠will likely call time on his career in motorsport soon, and he believes Vettel would be the perfect candidat🎀e to take over.

“I think he would be the ideal successor candidate,” Marko told Sky෴ Germany.

“But it is clear that at some point you can no longer do it, not leastꦯ because of your age.

“Because those travel🧜 efforts are no small thing. Of course, it wou꧟ld be great if a guy like Sebastian could take over. You have the side of the junior programme.

“He’s already working with girls ♋h꧒ere in the go-karts in Saudi Arabia. And on the other side, of course, there’s the great strategic leadership of his Formula 1 team.”

Since retiring from F1 at the end of 2022, Vettel has only made sporadic F1 paddock app🅷earances.

The German has been in Saudi Arabia ahead of this weekend’s grand ⛎🦄prix in Jeddah to promote females in motorsport.

Ma💫rko feels that Vettel would only need a couple of races to understand the role at Red Bull.

“I don’t think he needs a year,” Marko said. “That’s two races and then he has it under control. But this is a n🌃ew approach and I think Sebastian has found himsel👍f now.

“He knows what he wants to d🔴o in the future and that is first and foremost motor racing. He may be a forest﷽ owner in Austria with his own hunting grounds, but you can combine all that.”
