Formula One racing: 'I do not need any motivation,' Sebastian Vettel says image

Sebastian Vettel insists his motivation for Formula One will not diminish after he clinched his fourth consecutive world title.

The German clinched the 2013 title with victory at the Indian Grand Prix last month following another dominant season.

Vettel is one of just four drivers to win four world titles in his career, but stressed that he is still has the desire to add to his impressive list of honors.

"One of the secrets for the whole team really is to be in the moment," he said. "We love motor racing, we enjoy racing and therefore I do not need any motivation when I jump in to the car.

"I'm not thinking about what has happened before; I'm not thinking about what is going to happen in the future; I'm thinking about this race, or this practice session or this qualifying session trying to get everything out of it — and it's the same for the team.

"Obviously you have to plan the future a little bit, especially if you look at next year it's going to be completely different in many regards. But nevertheless, as long as you manage to focus on what's going on right now, you will have a better future as well.

"I'm not trying to look far ahead, I'm not trying to keep looking back. You should always look forward.

"We've had many, many great moments, very special moments, but I believe the biggest moment in my life is yet to come."

Vettel will look to seal an eighth consecutive grand prix victory, which would be a record in one season, in United States on Nov. 17.
