Ferrari's Formula One championship leader Sebastian Vettel made light on Thursday of media speculation that he might move to rivals Mercedes in 2018. "I didn't know (about the rumours)," the German said at a news conference ahead of Sunday's Spanish Grand Prix. Vettel said his focus was on this season, but the absence of an outright denial may do little to dampen the rumours. Vettel, a four-times world champion, is 13 points clear of Mercedes' triple title winner Lewis Hamilton after the German won in Australia and Bahrain. With so many seats on the grid potentially available next season, rumours are swirling about who might be going where.
