Sebastian Vettel has never shied away from experimenting with his hair. From sporting a messy style to a side buzz during his time in Ferrari and now long hair with a headband, we have seen it all. But his daughters are still young and probably haven’t seen their father with a proper haircut. Christian Horner, however, made it a point to show the girls exactly that.

Sebastian Vettel recently went out for a party with the Red Bull boss and Max Verstappen. Horner posted the photos of the trio enjoying themselves after the Abu Dhabi GP on his Instagram. However, now a video has emerged which shows there were many more people around with Seb’s kids in attendance as well.

Christian Horner shows Sebastian Vettel’s daughters what their father looked like back in the day

In a video doing the rounds of the internet, we see Christian Horner on the mic midway into a speech that appears to be a tribute to Red Bull’s former champion and retiring driver Sebastian Vettel. Horner, with all his Red Bull staff and Seb in attendance, wanted to play a video about Vettel and urged Seb’s daughters to pay attention.

Horner said, “We just got a small video that we wanted to play. So girls, make sure you can see your dad on the TV when he had a proper haircut, okay?”

We wish we could see the tribute video and Seb’s kids’ reactions to their dad’s look back then. But the video ends with just Vettel and Christian looking at each other and smiling before the tribute video began.

Sebastian remains the most successful Red Bull driver to this day. His 4 consecutive championship titles from 2010 to 2013 remain the Milton-Keynes-based team and Sebastian’s best years. Vettel could never win another title until he retired this year, not even during his time with Ferrari.

Max Verstappen recalls Sebastian Vettel’s wholesome caring moment

Max Verstappen had a horrible crash last year in Silverstone. The Dutchman looked jaded as he got out of the car and was swiftly taken to the hospital. When he returned, he saw Sebastian was the only one there waiting for him.

Speaking ahead of the Abu Dhabi GP, Max recalled, “So when I came back from the hospital to get to my motorhome to get all my stuff, he was there waiting for me. When I got out of the car and you [Vettel] said ‘Hey, Max, like how you doing? Are you okay?”

Verstappen and Vettel remain Red Bull’s only drivers to win the championship.
