"I'm not drunk enough, need more Tequila shots" - Sebastian Vettel mimics Ferrari's Carlos Sainz during the Autosport Awards

Four times World Champion Sebastian Vettel is a master of accents and impressions. The catalog continues to grow with Carlos Sainz’s name on the list of Vettel’s mimicry.

Sebastian Vettel is one of the most likable drivers on the grid and one of the reasons is by means of comedy. The German driver is a light-hearted human making everyone smile around on the grid.

Vettel continues to spread the smile, this time during the Autosport Award ceremony. The four times world champion had the prestigious Gregor Grant Award to his name.

Sebastian Vettel, the master of impressions

Sebastian Vettel has an arsenal of impressions of fellow drivers and the culture around them. A few of the famous ones include Kimi Raikkonen, Sir Jackie Stewart, and Helmut Marko.

There have been plenty of instances where the German driver hinted at a career in standup comedy. Perhaps one of the reasons he retired from the sport, who knows?

There is a compilation of the former Ferrari driver doing impressions here. Moreover, apart from being funny, Vettel stood for important causes like equality in sports, the environment, and sustainability for the betterment of the sport.

Carlos Sainz is the new name added to the four times world champion’s list of mimicry artist

The recipient of the Gregor Grant Award for his lifetime achievement in motorsport had one more mimic under his steering wheel. This time, it was Ferrari’s, Carlos Sainz.

Vettel looked around and wanted to enact one of the drivers not in attendance for the award. As Sainz was not present, the four times world champion seized the opportunity.

At first, he did mimic the Spanish driver calling him a handsome man. However, he realized that the trolling was not so good and needed a bit more drinks.

The presenter did suggest Vettel drink more shots of Tequila only for him to counter with the statement that he is saving money. The shots are not free and he is saving for the auction to buy his own F1 car’s sidepods.
