Sebastian Vettel has changed his mind on who he believes to be the Formula 1 GOAT – but like last time he avoided choosing Lewis Hamilton.
The four-time world champion knows more than most what it takes to be among the F1 elite. Vettel will retire later this month as one of the most decorated racers the sport has ever seen, boasting 53 race wins and 112 podiums, as well as those four consecutive drivers' titles.
Last year, on the eve of the title-deciding Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Vettel made it clear who he believed to be the greatest driver the sport has ever seen. No matter whether or not Hamilton got the better of Max Verstappen last year, he still advocated for his countryman Michael Schumacher.
