German motor racing legend Hans-Joachim Stuck has said that the fans’ decision to boo Sebastian Vettel just for winning is unfair.

Vettel, who is dominating the sport at the moment, was booed on recent F1 podiums, with Singapore being the latest.

“All I can say is, dear Sebastian, don’t worry about. Vettel does not have the charisma of an Alonso or a Raikkonen. You have it or you don’t, he’s still a great guy,” Stuck said.

Stuck also criticized the fans’ backing of Kimi Raikkonen and Lewis Hamilton.

“One has women; the other is often drunk under the table. And drivers with corners and edges are more loved by the fans at certain times than a slick one who only wins,” he said.

Meanwhile, Formula One chief executive Bernie Ecclestone said that Vettel’s domination won’t last long since the rules are all set to change for the coming season.
