Apr.21 (GMM) Sebastian Vettel has demonstrated that he is expecting a long and fruitful career at the pinnacle of motor racing.

The 20-year-old German, who has so impressed the pundits since debuting for BMW-Sauber and now Toro Rosso, has revealed the huge 250,000 euro motor home with which he intends to attend all the European races this year and beyond.

Bild newspaper said Vettel's new 'Concorde Liner 990' is ten metres long, weighs 7.5 tons, and features leather interiors, a dishwasher, huge TV and king-size bed.

Meanwhile, on the verge of the DTM race at Germany's Oschersleben circuit at the weekend, Vettel - on sponsor duties - defended Toro Rosso's decision to start the 2008 season with its year-old car.

Before his teammate Sebastien Bourdais crashed the STR3 in testing last week, the new car was scheduled to debut in Turkey next month.

"Last year it was very, very difficult for the team to start the season with the new car, so we decided to do it this way (in 2008)," Vettel told the German magazine Sport Bild.
