What is known about the future plans of the former Formula 1 driver is only that he has no interest in a permanent job in motorsport, and we’ve talked about that, as well as rumors that he could join the new Audi team as a consultant. project.
But he himself repeated in an interview with the Austrian television channel ORF that motorsport is no longer one of his priorities in life.
“Absolutely not. I am already 63 years old, I do not have enough energy to work on all the races of the season, – said Berger, but at the same time he mentioned his compatriot and old friend Helmut Marko, who remains at a very old age as “Hellmuth is already under 80, but he is still present at every race. But there are very, very few people like him. I want to stop in time, and the time has come.”
