šŸšØ STORY TIME šŸšØ

We all know Sebastian Vettel is special, but one @ScuderiaFerrari fan got delivered a special gift from the four-time world champion šŸŽ

Here's #F1 subreddit user u/Trex_Racecar's story šŸ‘‡
"I live in Austin next to a boutique hotel and last year the week before the US GP I see a GT4CLusso pull up and three guys in @ScuderiaFerrari team overalls climb out."

#F1
"The next day that same car pulls up and Vettel and one of his friends gets out. Now Iā€™ve never asked anyone for an autograph before but Iā€™ve been a Tifosi since the beginning and the man is a legend."

#F1 @ScuderiaFerrari
"I called out to him and asked to say hello and to take a photo. He obliges and stops and chats for a few minutes being completely genuine, introducing himself as if I didnā€™t know who he was."

#F1 @ScuderiaFerrari
"He asks me if Iā€™m going to the race on Sunday and I tell him that I couldnā€™t get tickets that year but Iā€™m looking forward to watching him have a good race."

#F1 @ScuderiaFerrari
"Throughout the week I see him and his friend and always wave but left it at that. I already felt bad enough disturbing him as I know how private he is."

#F1 @ScuderiaFerrari
"I come home a few days later and thereā€™s a bag tied to my doorknob. I open it and thereā€™s a signed hat with a note hand written on Ferrari letterhead with two tickets inside addressed to me by name."

#F1 @ScuderiaFerrari
"A four-time world champion meets me once in passing and notes that I didnā€™t have tickets, remembers my name, goes out of his way to find me some and hand writes the note. Heā€™s a class act and Iā€™ll never forget it."
