"I was running through the house and screaming I wanna be Michael Jackson"– Sebastian Vettel reveals what was his dream career and how he got into motoracing

Sebastian Vettel reveals how he wanted to be like Michael Jackson and now he realizes he was never cut for that profession.

During the Aston Martin 2022 car launch, Sebastian Vettel and Lance Stroll interacted with a few lucky fans allowed to attend the revelation. Among them, a handful of attendees were allowed to put forth their questions.

The host of the event narrated the question. She asked what would be the two F1 drivers, haven’t they been in Formula 1. Vettel was quick to respond and his answer made the fans chuckle.

The German race driver said: “There was a phase I remember I was running through the house and screaming I wanna be Michael Jackson. So I think that it stopped exactly there with the screaming.”

“Because there was zero talent when it comes to singing. So, I’m quite lucky that at some point, we discovered racing and my father took me out on the track. So I didn’t have to sing and could spare a lot of people the tough times,” Vettel added.
