Long Version of German Anthem Stalls Vettel's Guzzling of Red Bull

Sebastian Vettel, winner of the Malaysian GP nearly passed out during the playing of the little known third verse of the German national anthem. "Ja, I was like, when is this going to end and I can get a drink of Red Bull?...and I didn't know there was a long version - it kind of went on and on like Freebird"
Others were stunned at the length of the compulsory playing. "I mean c'mon already!" one mechanic from the Mercedes garage was overheard complaining. "I appreciate the over-emphasis to please that the Malaysian people have, but this is too much in all this heat. Can't we find a way to shorten it?"  Bernie Ecclestone was not impressed with the complaints however: "We must honor the motherland Germany for putting so many Germans on the grid." Everyone standing within 100 yards of Bernie were seen enthusiastically nodding their heads in agreement after his sage-like proclamation. Michael Schumacher was asked about the incident and said he didn't remember because he was in the garage doing a bong-hit immediately after the race. FOTA is scheduled to vote on shortening the German anthem for all time next week.
