Vettel’s farewell message makes Federica Masolin cry live: she can’t speak

Great emotions during thelast weekend of the 2022 Formula 1 World Championship which saw riders engaged at the Yas Marina circuit. World champion Max Verstappen’s fifteenth victory of the season, Charles Leclerc’s proud achievement that gives Ferrari second place in the constructors’ championship, but it was above all Sebastian Vettel who moved everyone, who hung up his helmet at the end of the Abu Dhabi GP, putting an end to his extraordinary career in F1🇧🇷

Emotions that also dominated Sky Sport journalist Federica Masolin that, after the last interview given by the German driver to the microphones of the exclusive broadcaster via satellite for the retransmission rights of Formula 1 in Italy, she suddenly started crying on live TV having to cut the Yas Marina circuit connection🇧🇷

O farewell message from four-time world champion (who thanked everyone for the support received) answering Mara Sangiorgio’s questions, he really impressed the whole Italian Sky team for F1: despite the tears Federica Masolin tried several times to remain professional and continue conducting the show, but the lump in her throat did not allow her to continue.🇧🇷

In this point it was expected that some other of the colleagues linked to her at that moment would take the floor but no one intervened, prolonging the surreal silence for several seconds (not even Davide Valsecchi who reacted laughing to the tsunami of emotions provoked by the words of the ex-Ferrari who was retiring from Formula 1): even the commentator Indeed, Carlo Vanzini admitted that he was excited by Sebastian Vettel’s farewell message before breaking the deadlock by releasing a pre-recorded clip. It is thus clear that, in addition to the esteem for the driver he had, there is also something special for the insiders that links them to the four-time world champion who left an indelible mark as a driver and as a man in the history of Formula 1.
