"I'll never forget," writes Reddit User trex_racecar in a post. He describes his random encounter with formula 1 world champion Sebastian Vettel. The story is so indicative of Vettel that they are picked up by Ferrari and formula 1 and more in the social networks is widely used.

And so the experience report of trex_racecar is: "I live in Austin in addition to a luxury hotel. Last year, before the United States Grand Prix, I can see how a GT4 Lusso in front of it stops, and three people in the Ferrari team get off. On the following day the car comes again, but this Time Vettel and a friend get off."
"I never asked anyone for an autograph, but I've always been a Tifosi, and the man is a legend. I call over to him and ask if I just say Hello and a photo with him can make. He agrees, stops and talks for a few minutes completely normal with me."
For particularly noteworthy trex_racecar holds that Vettel presents only once "I don't know who he is," says the Ferrari Fan.

"He asks me whether I come on Sunday for the race. I tell him that I got this year, no Ticket, but I am looking forward to a good race from him."
"In the course of the week I see him and his friend and wave always, have a stop there, though. I felt bad enough already, because I had disturbed him. Finally, I know how important privacy is."
How Vettel"returns the favor A few days later I come home and it hangs in a bag on my doorstep. It includes a signed hat and a hand written note on the official Ferrari stationery, and two Tickets to my name."
trex_racecar is totally flabbergasted, until today: "A four-time world champion hits me once in passing, remembers my name, knows that I don't have Tickets organised for me and sends me a hand-written message." The show him that Vettel was "just a class guy".
And the Story is now shared thousands of times, and much more likely to have been read. "Unbelievable," says trex_racecar, "such as large circles drawn. I had not expected. It's just a Story that was hidden deep in a Thread was, finally, a really heart-warming experience with a legend."
