Sebastian Vettel deliberately avoided social networks for a long time, but last summer, when he decided to end his career, he still officially “registered” there in order to personally explain his mood to the fans.
In addition to some short video messages, you mainly see archive photos from family albums, which tell about Sebastian’s first steps in motorsport since karting, and everything is arranged in chronological order, and the first photos date from 1990. The future four-time world champion was only three years old at the time old.
But yesterday he shared more recent photos from 1997, including stories about a visit to Italy. In one, young Sebastian sits on the fence of the Monza circuit, and the comment reads: “The future workplace.”
But there’s also another photo taken at the Ferrari Museum – maybe that was when Vettel first visited Maranello.
“Red suits me – even then it was felt,” – this is how you can translate the cheerful caption that accompanied Sebastian to this photo.
There is no doubt that Sebastian still has a passion for racing and Ferrari will always mean a lot to him, although he never managed to win the championship behind the wheel of a red car. But he still managed 14 wins during his years playing for the Scuderia, and Ferrari fans have something to love about him.
Of course he was highly regarded in the team, as Richardo Adami, his former race engineer, once said: “For Ferrari, Seb was a real revelation. He has given the team a lot in terms of working methods, and his attention to the smallest details is simply beyond compare. He worked tirelessly to make the team better.
Moreover, on his initiative, we began to actively develop such a direction as racing simulators, and Ferrari still benefits from this.”
