Four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel has continued his tradition of naming his Formula One car for the upcoming season.

The 29-year-old driver always gives his single seater F1 car a female name, and continuing his tradition, this year his 2017 Ferrari will be known as 'Gina', reports Sport24.

According to a German newspaper, the name of the car is Latin and is short for 'Regina', which means Queen.
