Sebastian Vettel has explained the story behind his ‘Invitation’ T-shirt that he wore at his final F1 race last weekend 👕 Full story ⬇️
Vettel retired from grand prix racing after the Yas Marina event last weekend, having decided to call time on his career so he can spend more time at home with his family.
The design prompted many questions about what the meaning behind it was – which the four-time F1 champion has since clarified. Vettel revealed that his own awareness of wider issues was triggered by the arrival of his daughters and then, shortly after, the death of his father-in-law. “I chose, together with my wife, to become a father. At 26 years old, our first daughter was born; the year after our second daughter was born. Then the year after that, my father-in-law was diagnosed with cancer, [and] passed away one-and-a-half years later.
“I really thought, how can I use the voice that I have to try and address things that are really important for all of us and looking at our world, and our climate? “I started to question my nutrition, what do I eat? Where does the food come from? I started to think: where do I get my energy from? How do I consume? Which clothes am I buying? There's many, many things.”
