Faster, more aggressive: Meet 'Kate's dirty sister'

Sebastian Vettel and the Red Bull car he calls 'Kate's Dirty Sister' have given Formula One championship leader Jenson Button plenty to think about ahead of Sunday's Bahrain Grand Prix. The eye-catching moniker came to light after Vettel powered through rain, spray and treacherous standing water to hand his team a breakthrough first victory at the Shanghai circuit last weekend.
"Like a ship, a car should be named after a girl as it's sexy," the 21-year-old German explained to reporters when asked about the name stuck on the dashboard of his car.

I'm liking Vettel more and more...

**dubGucKcolo** · 04-23-2009, 07:44 AM

he is just fantaizing about who is really his girlfriend--probably adopted, and really born in Arkansas

**GenrieAB** · 04-23-2009, 07:45 AM

Vettel always names his cars.... and always a girls name.

Kate was his car for Season 2009 but he killed Kate in Australia. As such his new car is named Kates Dirty Sister.

Kid has personality.

the real question is how doeas Ari get such an expanded signature, mine is sooooooolimited to a 100 characters or so

**rujeltaoser** · 04-23-2009, 12:15 PM

That's some funny stuff right there. I'm liking Vettel's sense of humour and general demeanour. Seems like a very cool guy. And he's fast

**RogHammon** · 04-23-2009, 01:26 PM

Of course the best Red Bull story of the weekend revolved around a small sticker on the front of Vettel's race winning car. Above the dashboard were three words: Kate's Dirty Sister. It was a cause of much amusement, and the explanation for it was just as funny as seeing it in the first place. Vettel has always given his racing cars ladies names – as they are sexy things. Last year's STR4 was Julie, and when he saw the Red Bull Racing RB5 he opted to call her Kate. After trashing his first car in Australia in the shunt with Robert Kubica, he was given a new chassis for Malaysia – which featured some updated tweaks that he felt made it ever sexier than before. Et voila – Kate's Dirty Sister.

haha i love drivers with personality! Jenson, Kimi, Webber and now Vettel are the drivers with true personality. Jenson because he says what he thinks and is often funny, Kimi because.. well he is kimi, Webber because he calls a spade a f$^#ing shovel and now Vettel who is incredible in that he is a truly funny bloke, but is german!

**pouslytut** · 04-23-2009, 03:29 PM

Who says Germans have no sense of humour?!

**9wQlZkIj** · 04-23-2009, 04:28 PM

Ahhh so that's how he won. Not racing a car but a ship - smart lad!

**GenrieAB** · 04-23-2009, 04:31 PM

Nah Mark was in the ship! The Queen Anne!!

I hear she rides great when it gets wet and slippery.

**Glamyclitlemi** · 04-23-2009, 04:33 PM

Er... I think it's mainly the Brits who say that.

**RogHammon** · 04-23-2009, 04:39 PM

Careful there! That's a very slippery slope you are riding on!

**Glamyclitlemi** · 04-23-2009, 06:04 PM

Careful there! That's a very slippery slope you are riding on!

Riding The Queen Anne on a slippery slope... Hey, that's how people get injured!

**Paiblyelaxy** · 04-23-2009, 07:00 PM

That's some funny stuff right there. I'm liking Vettel's sense of humour and general demeanour. Seems like a very cool guy. And he's fast

He loves his British comedies like Leauge of Gentlemen and Little Britain

**Teprophopay** · 04-24-2009, 01:58 AM

Ahhh so that's how he won. Not racing a car but a ship - smart lad!

as long as that ship isnt named Titanic....

or is that just the ship that Piquet seems to be riding the moment!

Now got double respect for Vettel, funny guy it seems!

**RogHammon** · 04-24-2009, 12:32 PM

Vettel's sense of humour has been described as "very British" by people close to him. He is a devotee of Little Britain and Monty Python. He collects original Beatles vinyls and is quite good at imitating Franz Beckenbauer.

He has class

**SeftyJokipl** · 04-24-2009, 01:00 PM

How many people will be backing "Kate's dirty sister" for the rest of the year? Does this add new meaning to the American term of rooting for your team?

**shinesw** · 04-24-2009, 01:46 PM

Apparantly, the replacement car has a different feel to the original Kate, harder and more aggressive, hence it being called kates dirty sister.

gotta love the guy

**fd8IIys2** · 04-24-2009, 02:57 PM

It feels good to find people like him on the grid
