It was smiles and some sadness for four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel on Saturday after his last qualifying lap around a Suzuka circuit that has played a big part in his Formula One career.
The 35-year-old German is retiring at the end of the season and every race is a farewell of sorts, but Suzuka will always be special.
"I love this place, I love this track. It’s just you feel more alive," Vettel told Sky Sports television after qualifying ninth, 10 places ahead of Canadian team mate Lance Stroll. "Laps like this make me...not regret, because I look forward to what’s coming, but a bit sad about the fact that it’s the last time."
