The partnership between Ferrari and Sebastian Vettel ends after this year. Where Charles Leclerc continuously manages to drive in the top ten, Vettel fights in midfield for points. After a disappointing qualifying session, the German tells Sky Sports that he has tried as hard as possible. 

“I felt really good and was also happy with my laps. However, the speed turned out to be lacking again," says Vettel after finishing 14th fastest. "It will be a difficult race again tomorrow because overtaking on this circuit is just difficult." The German does have hope to score points tomorrow.

Stronger than the rest

"We should be stronger in the race compared to the drivers who start in front of us, but it will be difficult to really overtake them on the track". In Q2, Vettel shot off the track in the last corner, creating clouds of dust. “I put everything in it."

“However, I knew that if I didn't continue driving now, it wouldn't happen at all”. Eventually Vettel continued and it was enough for 14th place. The German still has a number of races to go with the Italian team before he can start again at Aston Martin, together with Lance Stroll.
