Sebastian Vettel’s British weekend got off to an ideal start. The German qualified in 10th place at the end of Friday night’s qualifying session before improving his grid position following Saturday’s Sprint Qualifying. Starting in 8th place, the Aston Martin driver had a strong chance of scoring points after a dry spell (since the French GP).<\/p>\n
However, the hopes of scoring points quickly vanished for the four-time world champion. Moments after the second start, the German’s old demons resurfaced. After being overtaken on the outside at Luffield by Fernando Alonso, Vettel spun.<\/p>\n
The Aston Martin driver couldn’t even see the checkered flag, as on the 40th lap, his team called him on the radio to tell him to come back to the pits to retire.<\/p>\n
After the Grand Prix, the German stayed at Silverstone, not to debrief with his team or stay with the fans, but for a completely different reason. The scene was captured by spectators present after the race. We see Sebastian Vettel with gloves and a bag in hand, cleaning up and picking up trash in the stands of the circuit.<\/p>\n
The video was shared on social networks and all Formula 1 fans praised the scene. Many messages of respect were also posted.<\/p>\n
