Sebastian Vettel drove to a great seventh place during the GP of Spain, but before that he was in discussion with his team. Ferrari did not know what it wanted to do with the strategy of the German.

''I have to say that Ferrari has done badly strategically. As he said himself, you can't first ask if someone is going to push three laps, and then after those three laps ask him if he can finish the race on that tire because you've changed your mind,'' says Nico Rosberg to Sky Sports.

Vettel again full of confidence?

Vettel finally managed to keep everyone behind him outside the Racing Point's and Carlos Sainz, but you wonder what else would have been possible? ''If he'd taken it easy on those three laps, it would have been a lot calmer for him at the end of the race. I'm sure he'll talk to the team about that.''

After some bad results, however, this was what Sebastian needed according to his compatriot. ''This was exactly what he needed. A good day, some positivity and a great performance. Now he has to turn that into strength to get out of this black hole that he is mentally in'', concludes the world champion of 2016.
