Sebastian Vettel is often reserved about his private life and avoids social media as much as possible. However, the Ferrari star cannot stay away from complete isolation from the outside world. He does still appear in interviews, though these press talks are taking place virtually.

Speaking via Ferrari video conference from his house in Ellighausen, Sebastian Vettel opened up on a variety of subjects. When the German driver spoke about his routine at home, he revealed that he starts his days early in order to have time to train.

He also admitted that with his three children, there is no chance of lethargy. Vettel did confess that the weather has been favourable and it allows him to look after the house and the garden that. In addition to that, he is not completely dependent on a gym. Instead, he does have all the equipment at home to continue exercising without any problems.

Does Sebastian Vettel miss racing?

On the other end of the spectrum, the lack of racing is beginning to take its toll on him. He said, “Yes, it’s starting to tingle, I miss driving. The situation is serious. It is difficult to remain patient. We have seen that our Chancellor, the government and the states have loosened the reins somewhat, but we must continue to act responsibly.”

But it’s also a great way to put a lot of things on restart. It is a contemplative time and I hope that the appreciation for the seemingly unimportant things will remain, even if we all want to get back to normal life as soon as possible. This is an opportunity for all of us to press the reset button and find out what is important in our lives. And hopefully the conclusions that everyone draws for themselves are also tenable.”
