Vettel skips Abu Dhabi media duties after arrival of third child

Sebastian Vettel will not be in Abu Dhabi to face the media ahead of the season-ending race at Yas Marina, as he has become a father for the third time.

Vettel's wife Hanna has given birth to their third child, with Vettel set to arrive in Abu Dhabi late on Thursday.

He had been due to feature in Thursday's press conference alongside Ferrari team-mate Charles Leclerc.

The pair had been set to face questions following their collision in the Brazilian GP last time out, but Leclerc will face those enquiries alone.

The Vettels have two daughters, named Emily and Matilda, while the childhood sweethearts married earlier this year and now have more reason to celebrate.

Everyone at GPFans extends warm congratulations to Seb and Hanna!
