Ferrari, Vettel returns to the books: takes private Italian lessons

Sometimes even Formula 1 drivers return to school. His adventure in Ferrari began just over 48 hours ago and Sebastian Vettel took it really seriously: the four-time world champion began to take private Italian lessons. The 27-year-old from Heppenheim himself showed up, strictly in civilian clothes, in the Ferrari garage in Abu Dhabi last Tuesday to attend the first collective test session for 2015, even if Vettel's first laps on the track with the red car could take place only on the occasion of Jerez de la Frontera testat the beginning of February.

"The tongue is very important for me, I want to completely understand everyone at Ferrari in the best possible way,” confirmed the former Red Bull driver to his colleagues from La Gazzetta dello Sport. We must not forget that Vettel though he already speaks a little Italian following his experience in Toro Rosso in the 2007 and 2008 seasons.
