Vettel on compatriots: “More ease and loyalty would be nice”

“When it comes to valuing people, a little more lightness and loyalty would be nicer,” said the 31-year-old German in an interview with “Spiegel”.

Vettel said he could “sign up” to basketball superstar Dirk Nowitzki’s impression that the Germans would use every reason to gloat with their sports idols. He knows the reputation of the Germans from his years with the Red Bull team and the Italian Ferrari racing team. “To be picky, never satisfied, always looking for the negative,” said Vettel.

Vettel: “It will be forgotten very quickly” Even if it annoys him when he finishes behind his long-term rival Lewis Hamilton, the recognition for the British Mercedes driver is not fake. “Too often I miss the opportunity to pause and admire what has been achieved. This doesn't just apply to Formula 1 winners. The speed of our lives does not allow for reflection and admiration. It is forgotten very quickly, the next story is written immediately,” said Vettel.

Vettel has been driving in Formula 2007 since 1, initially for BMW and Toro Rosso, then for Red Bull and since 2015 for the traditional Ferrari brand. At Red Bull he became world champion four times in a row from 2010 to 2013.
