FORMULA One world champion Sebastian Vettel has apologized in person to Red Bull staff for ignoring team orders in a controversial Malaysian Grand Prix last weekend.
The team said the 25-year-old German had also spoken to aggrieved teammate Mark Webber, who had victory snatched away in the closing laps, after the race at Sepang and the pair had shaken hands. "He's said he can't turn back the clock but he's accepted what he did was wrong," team principal Christian Horner said of Vettel, who visited the Milton Keynes factory on Tuesday to address employees. "He's apologized to the team and to every single member of staff for his actions, because he recognizes the team is vitally important and being part of the team is a crucial aspect to being able to challenge for those championships." Vettel had also apologized to Webber at a news conference after Sunday's race.
