Norbert Vettel is set to race at Hockenheim this weekend as part of the Scirocco R-Cup series.
The Sciroccos will form part of the support races for the DTM series, which heads into its season finale at the Hockenheimring this weekend.
Vettel Snr, his appetite perhaps whetted by watching his son’s three consecutive victories at Singpapore, Japan and Korea, has previously competed in hillclimbing events.
The father of the two-time world champion will need to use all of his experience this weekend, as he’ll be racing alongside drivers such as five-times Le Mans winner Emanuele Pirro, as well as ex-Formula 1 drivers Markus Winkelhock and Christian Danner.
Vettel Snr will become the second F1-father to have driven in the Scirocco series, after Anthony Hamilton – father of Lewis – tried his hand at lapping Brands Hatch last year during a practice session.
