'...because he addressed all the problems directly, so in part was very uncomfortable' F1
quote him as having told Sky Germany “internally in Formula 1 some are now happy he’s gone, especially [F1 CEO Stefano] Domenicali and co, because he addressed all the problems directly, so in part was very uncomfortable, but rightly so”.
Schumacher personally, though, is sad to see his compatriot leave as he always enjoyed “his manner [and] his smile when things went well, and that snotty face when things don’t work out – but at least that’s a sign of his honesty”., Schumacher also says he was “not” shocked to learn of Vettel’s retirement.“The problem is simple – if you don’t succeed and the family are waiting at home, there is simply no longer any point for a man in his position or for a driver”.
Vettel, though, cited his desire to spend more time with his family as his main reason for quitting, which Schumacher says he understands.“I’ve actually asked myself more and more often, why are you doing this to yourself? Why aren’t you at home? Why don’t you enjoy the sunrise or sunset with your family? You can just play skat with your friends or go bowling.”
He added: “At some point the relationship slipped and then I wasn’t happy anymore and made the decision to quit.”
