Former F1 racing driver Vitantonio Liuzzi thinks he would of acted differently to how Sebastian Vettel did at the Russian Grand Prix. Vettel was asked to give the race lead back to Charles Leclerc despite being two seconds ahead.  

“I have always been very attached to team decisions, so maybe I would have followed because I am like that,” Liuzzi told Italian radio show Pit Talk. “But this is not necessarily the right choice.

“They are agreements that often do not give you something back. And in the race the situation is different, you have a few seconds to think about it.

“So it depends on how much you are a team player or how selfish you are and think about yourself. It depends on your personality.

“I think that right now Sebastian needs to prove that he is still the champion driver that he once again and Singapore gave just a taste of that.”

Vettel is under a lot of pressure to perform but the race win in Singapore has given him some good momentum to build on.
