Sebastian Vettel at Warrook Farm, Australia (full HD)
On Wednesday 23 March current Formula One World Champion Sebastian Vettel took time out of his busy pre-race schedule to visit Warrook Cattle Farm in rural Victoria for a crash course in Aussie farming. Sebastian is a nature and animal lover and was keen to get out of the city and explore the Australian countryside, so he was more than happy to roll up his sleeves and assist the farmers at the working sheep and cattle station, which is located approximately 80 kms south-east of Melbourne. Sheep shearer, Travis Scott gave Sebastian a quick lesson on the art of sheep shearing (it’s a lot more difficult than it looks) then put the world champion to work. Sebastian eagerly but with caution grabbed a sheep from the pen and got to it, under the watchful eye of 50+ media. With a little more guidance from farmer Travis, Sebastian sheared the sheep and was awarded a round of applause and congratulations from the farmhands and media. Job well done! Next up for the Formula One ace was hearding the sheep in the paddock with the help of resident sheep-dog, ‘Bluey’. He did well, and farmer Travis was so impressed with Sebastian’s skills that he said ‘if Formula One doesn’t work out for Sebastian, he can definitely get a job on the farm, he’s a quick learner’. © Red Bull, 2011
