      Four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel will participate in the London Marathon, scheduled for April 26. The former driver will run the distance at the invitation of Tom Clarkson, the host of Formula 1 press conferences.

      Vettel and Clarkson are participating in the marathon as part of a charity fundraiser for two organizations – the Brain & Spine Foundation, which supports people with neurological conditions, and The Grand Prix Trust, which helps Formula 1 staff and students seeking to find work in motorsport.

      "I am running the London Marathon in support of two wonderful charities associated with Formula 1 – The Grand Prix Trust and The Brain & Spine Foundation," Tom Clarkson wrote on social media. "Sebastian Vettel is running with me. Yes, he is fast. We really need your support."
