Fernando Alonso gives cheeky answer when asked if Sebastian Vettel retired from F1 early

"Maybe we are just in a learning process. So we take this 2023 in a very humble way and see how it goes. Vettel says he has no regrets after leaving Aston Martin and said there will always be an improvement over last season's performance.

Vettel said at a Bio Bienen Apfel event: "I've known the team very well for a few years and I'm happy they're doing so well. I think 2023 was going to be a better year than the season last year, that was obvious, because last year was pretty bad, so that was expected.
