Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen | Communication Skills Reaction & Analysis 

Will be dropping a solo Sebastian video soon as well!

no one is immune to the wonderfulness that is seb, not even the iceman.

Seb and Kimi do seem to have a lot of respect for each other. When they were teammates, Ferrari favored Seb quite a bit. When Kimi gets screwed over, you would see Seb going over to Kimi and seeming to console him (or apologize too, maybe?)

I think that lots of Kimi's personality comes from being a finn. The finns are a bit quiet and say usually what's on their mind. And they don't do small talk, it's not a thing in Finland. Finns don't usually brag about what they have achieved. If they do, it is usually considered impolite.

🥰🥰🥰 the oldies! seb is still in the sport, but retiring at the end of the year... they're so close and funny together. love them. do max and daniel together please!

Sebastian and Kimi has been best friends for almost 15 years...someone in the comment had pointed out how they met, in which Sebastian never forget how Kimi shook his hand and said hi properly when Sebastian was just a rookie in F1. Their houses in Switzerland are close, they frequently play badminton together.

It's interesting that you pointed out Seb asking questions. I have noticed that he is curious of people and their interests. Also if he doesn't want to answer question from media, he starts to ask questions of the interviewee to get the attention away from him and the question he doesn't want to answer. 😃 It's technic of him clearly. Then he doesn't need to say straight that he won't answer something.

Glad to see you enjoying F1 contents. Kimi is mostly only cold towards media, he has good relationship with teammates, he and Seb are good friends.

Sebastian is a great wingman for Kimi.

Kimi and Gio driving on the Nordschleife is pure gold.

Seb is still racing but is sadly retiring at the end of this year due to his team not having a competitive car. He is a 4x Champion and he dominated the sport throughout 2010-2013 era. Funny thing is, at that time, most people hated him because of how dominant he was, but nowadays everybody loves him

Please do lando and Carlos if you have time 😊

Seb is probably one of only two drivers that Kimi genuinely considers a friend, the other being Antonio Giovinazzi

Seb is a giant flirt, with just about everyone 😆 He sometimes uses that great conversational skill to deflect and can be mischievous in press conferences when it suits him. He's not unserious at all though, he is one of the most vocal and staunch driver advocates against the FIA when it's warranted and is a huge advocate for marginalised people in the sport. He is always the first to congratulate young drivers on their first wins and big successes.. His radio message after Lando Norris's big crash was straight to the point and clearly angry as hell. He can be ferocious on track (look up Multi 21 and Mark Webber) and completely unapologetic about it. Looking at him now it's hard to believe that his cockiness made him unpopular with a lot of folks back in the day. He's much more wry now than he used to be. One more thing to note about Seb is that for all his willingness to talk about the sport, he is very guarded about his private life and his family - which is of course his right and it sucks that some people cant seem to respect it. He is one of the shining lights in the sport and he will be sorely missed when he leaves in two races time.

Watching your reacting to them is always fascinating. I think Kimi and Seb were fantastic together and I feel very few people would bring out this side of Kimi. I miss them together. I would love if you could react to Daniel Ricciardo/Max Verstappen bromance next as well as perhaps Charles Leclerc/Sebastian Vettel or Pierre Gasly/Yuki Tsunoda

Yours Max Verstappen analysis brought me here, and I absolutely love it! Great to see F1 content about non racing stuff

Kimi always shows the "different" side of him when he's around people he likes, always loved to see it. & Simi are my fave drivers btw ♥️ so it was even better

Seb is probably the only one who could make Kimi laugh and get more than one worded answers out of him. Also, Seb is a huge nerd when it comes to F1, so he probably does enjoy the trivia

in Finland bragging is considered a bit of a taboo, so Kimi embodies that humble downplaying mentality

Sebastián is probably the only guy who actually genuinely made Lewis laugh

As a Seb Vettel fan (former as he no longer races in F1) I was a SV5 girl and although I didn't really support Ferrari as a team I did support Seb and Kimi and I loved how they had a unique friendship as Kimi kinda seems like he keeps himself to himself so I liked the Simi team also fans reference to their friendship as kind of a bromance

This doesn't take away from the competitiveness at all. :) As soon as the helmets go on, they are there to win. But Seb and Kimi do /did have a great friendship off track. More bro-mances in F1: Max and Daniel Riciardo Lando and Carlos (!) LJ

Do Max and Daniel's on the sofa reaction and analysis please

There are some videos of them spending time together without the media presence. Vettel has had several Finnish performance coaches and at least at some point he has owned a summer villa in Finland, so he's used to Finnish mentality and he appreciates the Finnish honesty and straightforwardness. Here's some videos of them interacting with each other, talking about each other, their retirement interviews and other drivers' thoughts on them after their retirement: Kimi Räikkönen and Sebastian Vettel - Behind The Wheel Episode 3 The Final Behind the Wheel with Kimi & Seb | Shell Motorsport Kimi Räikkönen & Sebastian Vettel - Funniest Moments EXCLUSIVE: Kimi Raikkonen & Sebastian Vettel Interview | "We respect each other!" Kimi Raikkonen: The Last Word | A Farewell F1 Interview Sebastian Vettel On His F1 Retirement Drivers React To Kimi Raikkonen's Retirement | 2021 Dutch Grand Prix Drivers React To Sebastian Vettel's Retirement

VETTEL IS NOT YET RETIRED!!! He has two more races to do :) Great video as always, cheers

Seb is such a nerd, too, you can tell in the interview. In a summer break "contest" by F1 they asked the drivers to name all the F1 champions from 2021 to 1950. First you get wrong, you're out. Seb did all of them. Finally when Kimi found out, that the interview would be done if he got someone wrong, he immidietly did that

It would be interesting to see your reaction on F1 drivers that are well PR trained. Mick Schumacher, another F1 driver (son of an F1 legend) has been PR trained his entire life so it would be so interesting to see your take on him.😊

Vettel is referred as the "F1 encyclopedia" you should watch the video of him naming all 70 world champions in like 2 minutes

We need all videos on Kimi♡

Really looking forward to more Seb videos! He is such a great guy and super interesting personality over the years of his career

Kimi's press conference videos are gold.

You're spot on! They were teammates and good good friends. Seb is a legend and the way he talks is so eloquent and Well said. 💜 Just for your entertainment I'd advise you to watch the video where Seb lists all the champions in reverse order. Is so Good. He's done so much for the sport. On track and off. Legend, one or the best.

Kimi is deflecting praise because he is being super humble. He is from Finland and this is the way being humble in Finland works

Kimi is awesome with people he likes and considers as friends. Sebastian is an extrovert ang gets on with everybody. They are both very likeable in their own way. Nice analysis.

the best f1 duo to ever be on the grid!! we love Simi!!! and you are absolutely right, Seb is a cool guy :)

Sebastian's is so smart, he's like wikipedia's, he's a legend

Please do a Pierre Gasly and Yuki Tsunoda reaction as well !!!

Watch Max and Daniel's please!!

it's Kimi's style to be short and blunt, i think he enjoys to throw those "jokes" that anyone else can't understand. maybe that one Finn in crowd will get it.

Niki Lauda would also be an interesting case to study... brutally honest like Kimi but an excellent communicator at the same time

Vettel is one of the few who really made friends with Kimi. They are close friends

You should definitely check on Kimi and Antonio's interactions!

I would love to see a reactionvideo about verstappen and Riciardo, they were amazing together!

You should watch Seb flirting compilations it's so funny he has no shame haha and Seb is not retired yet he will at the end of 2022 tho

Would be fascinated to see your analysis of Nico Rosberg either by himself or with Lewis Hamilton!

You gotta do Pierre Gasly and Yuki Tsunoda before the end of the season, they have one of the best relationships and are splitting up next year.

About the positive attention and praise, it is a bit of the Finnish way. Many of us have "problems" getting praised, something in the blood. Stoick, silent doers.

Kimi and Antonio Giovinazzi anaylsis would be interesting 👀 Or Checo and Max.

BTS and F1 content wow. I am spoiled. Thank you for your videos.

You should analyze a video of the relationship between Pierre Gasly and Yuki Tsunoda

could you react to the rookie of the year 2019 video or the twitch quartet quiz?

Vettel still has 2 races to race in , just wishing he wouldn’t be retiring

Typical Finn First expression: quiet, short worded, shy, strictly on point and straight forward. With friends: the talkative, joking, loud, and smiling side comes out.

You should watch drunk Kimi clips.

Max, you can try Daniel Ricciardo next.

can you please react to kit connor and joe locke from heartstopper?

Yk Watching U made me Realise that A Non F1 Fan Can find Kimi a bit confusing

You should react to Michael and Seb and then Seb and mick (Michaels son).

Charles and carlos c2 challenge please

please do charles and seb!

What about George Russell?

Seb has 3 more races…

can you do daniel and max

sebastian and charles videos together would be interesting too analyze, because they seem so awkward

It would be interesting to see you look at a more current example of Seb speaking, especially where he's trying to convince people or convey a moral or philosophical point. He has recently become somewhat of an activist, advocating for the environment (and against climate change), for LGBTQ+ people, etc. He uses the communication skills you've noted (and more) to get across his points in really effective, disarmingly sincere ways, using examples that are applicable to his audience. It's very interesting see.

How to make finnish people talk 101: add alcohol.

please react to max verstappen and daniel ricciardo!!

The easiest way to make a Finn awkward is with praise.

Can you react to Carlos and lando

max has officially gone deep into f1.. there's a reason why your mom named you max

Sebastian smashed kimi on the track…thats why They are cool

they're so dating

Vettel is still in f1 but he will retire at the end of this season

Great video and yes Seb seemed to be one of the few drivers that Kimi connected with over his career! I also recommend this video showing Seb & Lewis ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Yq8ppUAVny8.html

now I want to be famous and see him analysing me 🤨🤣🤷🏻‍♀️

2:54 I think the kind of deflecting may be a cultural thing as well. Finns are like that, downplaying achievements, not bragging or praising self.

Calling all simi rats to watch this video

If you want a view of Sebs comms style check out any of the 'Seb Vettel flirting" clips.

3:01 he's just modest. Typical Finnish behavior

Been watching F1 since I was a kid in early 70's. Kimi has to be the most genuine and hilarious driver ever. The Iceman has amazing skill as a driver one of the best really deserved a couple more titles but I am sure he is cool with it. It is funny just listening to him purposely not answer questions all the F1 Raikkonen interviews and radio messages from on track are truly priceless 😂 he is missed as is Seb ( think he will be back)

it's a finnish cultural thing to downplay it when ur getting praised. it's rude to be seen bragging in any way so it's just kinda how we react to praise, generally speaking. also kimi doesnt give a single shit about achievements, he just likes to drive fast 😂

You should watch The interviews and discussion of Stoffel van doorne ( belgian ) Niko hulkenberg (German) and Max verstappen ( dutch ) talking to each other as they all speak german , dutch and english . driving the teams press agents insane ( the ones that have to recored and step in when somthing is not alowed to be said ) Its hilarous .
