Sebastian Vettel: Nobody is as frustrated as I am

Sebastian Vettel: "Nobody is as frustrated as I am"

Sebastian Vettel has had a tough season so far and is yet to win a race this season. The introduction of Charles Leclerc at Ferrari has also meant that he is under pressure to beat his teammate, something which he struggles to do. The German feels the pressure but wants to keep performing, believing that he has a reason to "look forward."

"I expect myself to do well," Vettel said to the BBC"If I don't, I am the one who is most upset. Not the guy who is watching on the pit lane. Not the investor behind, or whoever. I can't imagine they are more frustrated than I am. It is just not possible. Not sounding egomaniacal."

Vettel seems to be frustrated with his performances but is even angrier at people criticizing him. 

"If things go wrong, the anger, you know? Of course. Because I know best what happened. If people from the outside think they know, they can see on TV and from seven different angles and replays. But I was there.

"What I mean is, you are your best judge. Not just with driving, but with anything.

"When you look yourself in the mirror, you know the truth, and is there really more pressure here?

"A lot of stuff happened, good and bad - a lot of good especially - that I look on to, and I have reason to look forward, too."
