    The video is in the above link; I can't find it on YouTube.

    However, did find the "teaser"...

    Good find, thanks.

    Also echoed nicely in Airplay to the big screen, which is always nice. :)

    Anyone know where it was shot? Very cool "coffee table" too - Don't think the G/F would approve of it in the living room, but a "man cave"? That was a good one.

    Also gotta note for the haters how well KI came across IMO. Maybe his new PR folk are helping him to get it together. ;)

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Great Vettel interview, as well as the Abu Dhabi one. Don't understand why people say he's arrogant when he seems to be one of the most down-to-earth and humble F1 drivers I've seen, even with his 4 titles. The kid lives in a crappy little town, negotiates his own contracts and he's happy with half the money and twice the titles as Alonso, and geniunely loves what he does, and he's grateful for the opportunity. And even with just a high-school-equivalent diploma, he's a very smart guy, and very technically-oriented. And he's fascinated by F1 history, and being part of it. A great ambassador for the sport IMO, even if his personality doesn't make him the most liked F1 driver around.

    Finally, it was also great to hear Andretti's wisdom. Never heard him in such an interview before. I was impressed by him. Seems very humble too. DVR'ed it on FOXS1 before today's race, by the way.

    He's always been like that. He's incredibly ruthless and competitive on the track but very polite and humble in interviews.

    Agreed but damn, that's annoying in itself ;)

    No a clever lad, very hard to fault.

    He looked incredibly nervous sitting next to Andretti.

    He did? I didn't see that at all.

    Interesting how "we" see and interpret things differently I guess. He seemed confident, but not arrogant, and while "politically correct" as they pretty much all are these days, interviewed pretty well I thought.

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Andretti is nothing short of a modern day gladiator. His era was a blood sport. What he faced on a daily and weekly basis and survived is just incredible. I have deep respect for him.

    Honestly - its the jacket that gave him that impression. The collar is sticking up oddly when he's sitting there, making him look uncomfortable/neverous, even if he isn't.
