After somehow being voted Driver of the Day after losing himself the championship lead in France, Sebastian Vettel has come under fire from the Italian media for a poor showing at the French Grand Prix.
La Gazzetta dello Sport summed up the race as a wasted opportunity for both the German and the team.
"Vettel committed an amateur error and this time the consequences are serious.
"Despite its excellent car, for Ferrari it is once again a wasted opportunity."
La Repubblica said that should Vettel continue to make mistakes such as the one he did on Sunday, he will not stand a chance of winning his fifth world title.
"Vettel makes mistakes that he cannot afford if he wants to win another world title."
La Stampa added:
"It was a great catch up drive, but also ten wasted points because of too much impulsiveness."
