THE DOCUMENTARY THROUGH THE CREATOR EYES
The second chapter of Vettel in Red had to wait more than six years, until Dani released a poll in his YouTube community asking whether he should make a sequel to Vettel First Year in Red or continue the Max Verstappen documentary series with TH3 YOUNG3ST 2. People voted in favour of the Vettel documentary, so Dani decided to make it.
The video is a clear continuation of its prequel in terms of editing, montage, and color grading, but this time it tells the story of the German driver’s second year at Ferrari, which was much more frustrating and disappointing for Sebastian.
Dani spent four months working on the documentary and published it on YouTube in early 2021. Five years later, the documentary reached 100,000 views on YouTube. Although it wasn’t as popular as the first one, it has been a very enjoyable experience for those who watched it, according to their feedback.
