It’s the least we can say Formula 1 race this weekend in Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium was full of events, both on and off the track! It is none other than four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel who actually bears the costs. As he explains in the video below: the security forces asked him to step aside to let him go… Fernando Alonso!
“Four policemen pushed me with shouts to get to the side of the road”
“I rode my bike to the track When four bikers from police arrived They pushed me, yelling for me to stop. Renault was driving behind them. Fernando they saw off And two other bikers who were following him pushed me to the side again,” explains the German rider.
“I went through it again right after”
The situation, to put it mildly ridiculously since it is so the Spanish driver who will take the place of the German driver next year! Fortunately Vettel seems to have taken the situation as a joke ends with a funny comment: I went through it again right after “. The result is slightly different to the one obtained on the track, as the Alpine driver finished ahead of the Aston Martin driver, this time without the help of the police…
