Sebastian Vettel has scoffed at suggestions that he will be going to Ferrari in 2014.

The fact that Felipe Massa has a one-year deal and a seat is seemingly being kept available has led many to speculate that Vettel has been lined up for the job, despite Ferrari boss Luca di Montezemolo saying that he didn’t want “two roosters in the hen house.”

“No, there's nothing, nothing to tell you, nothing I've signed,” said Vettel. “Nothing has changed. It's quite amusing. I don't know where it came from. I don't read much, so it's quite a surprise when you get to the circuit and get all these questions.

“Actually, there's one thing I would like to say about this. As I said, there's no reason to write anything or report anything but obviously, as I said earlier, you don't know every single one in the team, and it's hard to speak to every single one, so if there's - sorry to say - some bull in the press, obviously there might be some concerns back in the factory.

“But I'm 100 percent behind them as I feel they're 100 percent behind me and therefore I want to get this straight – there's nothing to report, and I'm very happy at Red Bull Racing.”
