Sebastian Vettel draws inspiration from his father

Back in 2013, Vettel spoke about the lessons he’s learned from his dad. A father of three now, Vettel credits his dad for setting an example. “There’s more and more things you start to appreciate with age… the way [your parents] brought you up.” 

Vettel talked about his father, who was a carpenter by profession. “My father did some amateur hill climb racing. So, hopefully, he passed on some talent!”

Vettel shared an important lesson he took away from Norbert. “I think the fact that you need to stay grounded to appreciate the normal things in life, which is good to remind yourself  

The German is easily one of the most grounded and humble drivers on the grid today – clearly keeping his father’s lessons in his heart. As a driver, Vettel has been an inspiring personality. Apart from a respectful yet tantalizing race on the track, Seb sticks close to his morals of the track.
