Sebastian Vettel is getting a little tired of all the rumors that keep coming about a possible switch to Racing Point. The Ferrari driver believes that the media are looking for sensation. He also states that there is still no agreement with a team for a 2021 seat.

"People make too much noise about something like that, I don't know what's interesting about it", Vettel is quoted by the French AutoHebdo. According to the 33 year old driver, the media is looking for news that isn't there at all. "Same thing when I wave to Lawrence Stroll or Christian Horner in the paddock, it's on the front page!"

Reportedly, Vettel has been presented with a three-year contract at Racing Point, but he denies that a signature has already been placed. "I still have several options and I'm taking the time to consider them", said Vettel, who got into the car with Racing Point team boss Otmar Szafnauer in Great Britain to look at the new Ferrari of the Romanian born. "And it wasn't the first time I've been in Otmar's car, but nobody was interested at the time"

No Formula E for Vettel

Rumours that Vettel might make the switch to Formula E are immediately suppressed by the four-time world champion himself. "No, I'm not looking at anything outside of Formula 1."
