Sebastian Vettel enjoyed a late night partying on Sunday evening and Monday morning following his second championship win in Japan.
The German admitted the night started with some quiet drinks in the bar with ‘the boys’ before taking to the karaoke machine, in which he belted out ‘Yellow Submarine’ and ‘Hey Jude’ by the Beatles.
“We had a very busy Sunday to be honest,” said Vettel in Korea. “After the race there were a lot of things to do but once we got beyond that and once I found myself in the bar with the boys we enjoyed that night very much.
“We had a very good time. Did some karaoke, which I think is traditional in Japan. It was a very good night, very special, and after a couple of drinks everyone was quite happy so we definitely had a good time.”
Fellow countryman Micheal Schumacher made an appearance, which, according to the 24-year-old, was when the night took a turn for the worse.
“It was quite special as some time in the night Michael [Schumacher] came as well and joined us and we had a couple of drinks together.
“I think after he came I felt much worse as I started mixing [drinks] a little bit, which wasn’t the best strategy,” admitted Vettel.
“All in all, it was a fun night. We continued going straight to Tokyo. I had an event there with Infiniti and saw a lot of fans there so it was good. We weren’t as fit as usual maybe, so still quite tired but it was quite a nice day as well.”
