Mark Webber is confident Red Bull will retain him next year despite rumblings from a British newspaper that boss Christian Horner may be considering Lewis Hamilton as Vettel's teammate.
Webber has a rolling one-year contract with Red Bull which is yet to be renewed for 2012.
But he insisted the ball was in his court entirely and it was his decision whether to continue racing or not.
He said they were talking but there was no urgency.
Webber said Red Bull were very keen to keep him.
