Sebastian Vettel expecting emotional Red Bull farewell

Sebastian Vettel expects an emotional weekend at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as he bids farewell to Red Bull after six seasons and four world championships.

Sebastian Vettel has said he is expecting emotions to be running high as he prepares to bid farewell to Red Bull after six years with the constructor.

The four-time world champion is set to replace Fernando Alonso at Ferrari in 2015, but the German is hoping for good result at the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, where he picked up his maiden drivers' title for Red Bull in 2010.

Vettel is quoted by GPUpdate.net as saying: "I personally have very special memories of the Abu Dhabi circuit and race.

"It was here in 2010 that I became World Champion for the first time in my favourite F1 car, the RB6. That was a weekend I will never forget and this year the race will mark another big moment in my career; my last race with Red Bull.

"Of course it will be an emotional weekend as we have great memories together, but I'll enjoy the weekend with the team and with a bit of luck maybe we'll get a final podium."

Vettel spent two seasons with associate Toro Rosso team before joining Red Bull in 2009.
