Grand Prix du BrĂ©sil - Interlagos đ§đ· 25/11/2012 : Tout le monde espĂ©rait du suspense et de l'animation pour la derniĂšre course de la saison, Ă Interlagos, et personne n'a pas Ă©tĂ© déçu. 
Des accrochages à répétition, de la pluie, deux sorties de la voiture de sécurité, des choix de pneus bizarres, plusieurs changements de leader, et au final un scénario qui a sacré Sebastian Vettel (Red Bull), qui a pourtant connu bien des frayeurs sur la piste d'Interlagos.
Tout a commencé dÚs le départ, que l'Allemand a manqué, au contraire de son seul rival pour le titre, Fernando Alonso (Ferrari), parti lui comme une fusée de sa septiÚme place, dans le sillage de son poisson pilote Felipe Massa.
Norbert Vettel: "I have always had a soft spot for engines, screwed on mopeds and motorcycles - and rode mountain races. It was like a virus. So I bought a kart for 1200 marks for the kids. Sebastian was three. I set up bowls for a slalom in our yard and he curved aroundâ
âOn a podium I built , I presented him with his first motorsport cup, which we had previously obtained. What a glow in his face."đđđ
Q: Abu Dhabi is not a sad occasion for youâŠit is exciting
#SV5: â yeah thatâs how I see it, I donât know if Iâll be in tears and breakdown but I thought about this so much and it feels so right! Iâm looking forward to #AbuDhabiGP & what comes afterâ #SV5 #Vettel

âI know the adrenaline rush will be different and will be gone, the excitement of driving in places like Suzuka pushing myself and the car to the limits and it makes me sad. Yet it is a trade for something new/different exciting. Thatâs how I feelâ
Q: how do you want fans to remember you?
#SV5: ââŠ. Fans make the sport what it really is. We had an experience without fans it felt wrong!. Iâll miss the people, their little messages, the attention. How should they remember me I donât know.I donât feel I want to be rememberedâ

Q: which teammate you got was the fastest?
#SV5: âit is difficult to answer, but on the day Mark got his things together and the car does what he wants, it was incredible to watch!. Also Charles was incredible in squeezing everything in one lap, Daniel too he beaten meâŠâ

âI didnât mean to leave Kimi out. I think he is the biggest in terms of natural talent and it shows in the car but it also shows when switching cars. If there was car change every 10 days he would be lapping everybody else. Give him a steering wheel and he knows what to doâ
âI had the best relationship out of all the teammates I had. There was never an issue. we crashed into each other we talk about, joked about it. Purely because he is straightforwardâ
Seb said he had talks with Niki about the move to mercedes but he was then committed to winning with Ferrari:
Also said: âI think I would have enjoyed racing with Lewis, we get along really well. Our moment was Baku 2017 where today we can call it had a misunderstandingâŠâ #SV5

âI was very upset, it was one of the moments where things didnât go my way, and the emotional side took too much over. But I think actually it was a key moment because it could have made us step away from each other more, or bring us together. It brought us togetherâ.
âI reflect and thought about what happened in the moment felt not right, I wanted to show him/Tell him but I couldnât because we were wearing helmets. It was a form of communication but I also see it was a wrong one, not sportsmanlike,not fair to him which I admitted afterâ.
Asked if the final difficult year was the one that introduced the retirement thoughts:
#SV5: âthe year before! 2019 the start of the season was for me at least not giving me that momentum to say here we go again⊠the problem there was too many ideasâ

âCharles came in being in a different time in his career and life,it was funny because I watched him and we got alone very well, I really enjoyed the time together and he taught me things not necessarily about driving. It was little bit like looking at younger version of myselfâ
â it did take me little bit of time to understand that, because obviously my goal wasnât winning a race I wanted to win championship and that needs to win many many races, Maybe I lost my self in the process and some of the races werenât good but some wasâ
How would you sum up your time at Ferrari?
#SV5: â I have a special bond with Italy, the people the brand was always special to me, it has been a privilege to be able to drive for them. But in terms of numbers I failed because I wanted to win the championship and I didnât..â

âMercedes and Lewis were the better package, we couldnât beat them but the more time passes the more iâm in peace with it because we did some great things together, and not great too!. In the end like I said there was someone out there that was just better, but no regretsâ
Q: how much those five years take out of you emotionally?
#SV5: âI never felt that extra pressure of being a Ferrari driver if anything I felt the extra pressure I was putting on myself to succeed in this place and make this work! There is plenty of reasons why it didnât but..â

Asked if his early success in F1 created unrealistic expectations in his mind!
#SV5: âno!I didnât count as in now your year 5is better than 4 then6/8âŠetc. you understand after couple of years after the wave from 2010-2013 then 2014 was a hole,I didnât win a race but happy..â

âwith a podium you havenât been for a while! It changes you whereas when youâre fighting in the front P2,P3 youâre not pleased with yourself âŠâ
âthe years with Ferrari were up & down but overall at the front, you can argue last couple of years where youâre not winning races taught me a lot, the car was not good enough. It is the nature of our sport when youâre in the front you donât see whatâs happening in the backâ

Q: How scary is the prospective of life without F1?
#SV5: âunknown thatâs how I feel! Itâs a fantastic world that can get you in it and stay forever. Obviously I canât drive foreverâŠ
I am a racing driver yes but when I get home I enjoy the bits of life..there is always more..â

âThere is always more to life and more to enjoy other than the racing world,which obviously has consumed me,Iâve been obsessed with it most of my life. Iâm sad that I donât have the adrenaline rush anymore,not to have the competition the feeling of pushing myself, the carâŠâ

Overall lap time chart doesn't show us too much to be honest. Unlike Spain where the bands of racing were beautifully outlined. First stint it's vaguely there, second stint more so, then final stint is sorta wishy washy
