STARS READY FOR RACE OF CHAMPIONS 2023

-

Formula 1 champions Mika Hakkinen and Sebastian Vettel have both been confirmed for the Race of Champion, which will take place in Sweden on January 28-29 next year.

The all-star showdown will take place on a circuit laid out on a frozen lake in the north of the country. Vettel made it to the individual driver final earlier this year but was beaten to the crown by multiple rally title winner Sebastien Loeb.

“I can’t think of a better place for my first race after I retire from Formula 1 than the Race of Champions,” Vettel said. “This will be my 11th appearance, and

I keep coming back because it’s a special event, and so much fun.”

Father-and-son team Petter and Oliver Solberg will return to the event along with multiple rallycross champion Johan Kristoffer­sson.
