Vettel praises Sébastien Loeb

While they will both receive this evening, at the FIA ​​gala in Istanbul, their trophies crowning their 2012 titles, Sebastian Vettel indulged in some laudatory comments about Sébastien Loeb : “This guy is unique, He says. His talent is something exceptional, but it is not only that. There is this intelligence that he shows during rallies. You know, when I talk about the fact that I use the clutch when my car spins (reference to the Brazilian GP. Editor's note), in order to take advantage of this bad posture, these guys do it at every turn. It's impressive and inspires respect. »

The German also praised the human qualities of the Alsatian: “But what is more important is that he is a normal and very nice guy. » Vettel has always shown a certain interest in rally. The German driver, for example, went to the 2009 Rally Finland, where a certain Kimi Räikkönen (Fiat Punto S2000) also raced.
