Cars must have a woman's name - Vettel

  • Intro:

    Following the Chinese Grand Prix, Sebastian Vettel paid a visit to Beijing on Monday.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English), Sebastian Vettel (on naming of Red Bull cars):

    "The first name actually that we gave ever to a car in Red Bull racing was Kate - but then unfortunately we had a crash, so a bad start and we had to change the chassis and then we had a new car and we called the new car 'Kate's dirty sister'. I don't know if you have a sister - so that's where the whole thing started and since then every year we came up with different names. Basically the idea is to have a name so you can attach a little bit more to the car and it has to be a woman's name because we believe, the mechanics and I, believe the car is very beautiful. Therefore it would be wrong to call it 'Dave' or something like that. I don't know if there is someone called Dave in here, I am sorry but that's where we started and since then obviously had quite good times with various ladies in the past."
