Formula 1 will miss Sebastian Vettel and his charm next year. The 4-time World Champion has announced his retirement and will hang his helmet at the end of the season. However, the Aston Martin driver has not only been a champion racing driver but also a champion advocate for various external reasons like climate change and sustainability.

Sebastian Vettel has multiple records to his name in F1. From becoming the then youngest race winner to becoming the youngest ever F1 champion, Sebastian has enjoyed a wonderful career that he puts to rest at the end of the season.

However, Sebastian was not always as loved as he is today. During his rookie years, he was more of a villain on the grid owing to his temper. But over the years, he’s managed to keep his temper in check and laugh more often.

An old article written by Anthony Rowlinson in The Red Bulletin described Sebastian aptly. It read, “Vettel is, after all, funny and stands out like a comic light bulb in a paddock of rare individuals corralled too often into corporate alignment. He names his cars, He swears, He (gosh!) smiles. […] He is, truly, a one-off in being able to race as hard as he laughs…”

Additionally, Sebastian’s mischievous and jolly nature is well-liked by many people in F1. The sport will surely miss the German’s insight and wisdom.

Sebastian said, “I think it was 2020, But obviously I made the decision to join Aston Martin before I think it was really in discussion that Alex was going to leave. So it was never really close. But of course I know Christian, I know Helmut. So for sure I had a sort of brief chat with them, but never really anything serious.”
