Sebastian Vettel and Mick Schumacher will reunite for the 2023 Race of Champions, representing Team Germany.
It is the third time that the duo have contested the Nations’ Cup segment of the competition together.
They first linked up in 2019 before returning to the event last year in Sweden, which also hosts the 2023 version.
Vettel, who retired from Formula 1 at the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix last month, confirmed in September that he take part in the Race of Champions next year.
It’s set to be his first on-track contest since he walked away from F1, with the 35-year-old expressing delight over Schumacher’s return to the event.
“I’m delighted that Mick will be joining me at the Race Of Champions again – for my first race since my retirement from Formula 1,” Vettel said.
“Neither of us has much experience on snow and ice so it was a steep learning curve in Sweden earlier this year.
“I ended up surprising myself by getting to the individual final against Sébastien Loeb and now I can’t wait to come back and team up with Mick to see if we can take Team Germany all the way to another ROC Nations Cup title.”
Schumacher was dropped by the Haas F1 team at the end of the season, and he has since taken on a reserve driver role with Mercedes.
“It’s great to be back at the Race Of Champions and to see all the drivers again,” he said.
“Even better that Sebastian will be competing too, so that Team Germany can hopefully live up to the tradition of fighting for the title in the ROC Nations Cup.
“I’m really looking forward to driving on ice again, and to spending time and fighting battles with this impressive roster of drivers attending.”
Team Germany is the most successful country to compete in the Nations’ Cup, with Vettel enjoying great success alongside Mick’s father Michael from 2007 to 2012.
