168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton has lauded former F1 rival 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sebastian Vettel as “the best world champion that I know.”

Hamilton and Vettel competed for sever🐽al years at the front of F1, producing some memorable battles.

Vettel em♏erged victorious in their early title duels, most notably in 2010, when both remained in contention heading into the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, with Fernando Alonso and Mark🦋 Webber also involved.

Their rivalry intensified in 2017 and 2018, with Hamilton and Vettel leading Mercedes and Fe💯rrari respective🧔ly.

Hamilton prevailed in both seasons, denying Vettel the opportunity to emulate his idol, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Michael Schumacher, by bringing title success to the Scuderia.

Spဣeaking to a group of fans as part of his farewell tour in Malaysia, Hamilton reflected on his F1 career and explained why Vettel stands out.

“Seb is the best world champion that I know because he's far more than a driver,” he 💝said.

“He's someone with real pa꧃ssion, he's empathetic, and he cares for people. He actually is the only other one that's tried to utilise his platform for something good.

"I've met so many celebritie🅺s and so many people. There's a lot of people that don't take tim♔e for others.

“I think, for me, that makes me... it doesn't matter how well he driv🐽es, he's so quick anyway. We had great races together.

“But I think, for me, we had the best⛦ ra𒀰ces together.”

A force for change off-track

Vettel’s downturn in form and subsequent move to F1's midfield with Aston Martin prompt🍰ed a shift in his focus. 

The German became increasingly invested in issues outside o🦂f🌌 F1.

At the 2021 Hungarian Grand�🌊� Prix, Vettel wore a rainbow t-shirt ahead of the race to promote LGBTQ+ rights.

🦹This act was a result of Hungary’s proposal of a controversial laꦇw limiting schools’ ability to teach about homosexuality and transgender issues.

The former Red Bull driver al🅘so became vocal on environmental an🌟d sustainability issues, areas of interest he has continued to champion since retiring from F1.
