Vettel: “I wasn’t happy, but I won’t tell you why”

Sebastian Vettel (Ferrari) the bad. His superficial smile in front of the public won over to his team's cause after qualifying on Saturday in Monza (Italy) is not enough to make us forget the anger contained in his comments on the radio immediately missed pole position by 161 thousandths.

The German actually expressed only one sentence during his deceleration lap. " We will speak again ". Sebastian Vettel did not appreciate that he made the opening in front of his teammate Kimi Räikkönen, who was able to benefit from a slight and significant aspiration.

 

 

It should be noted that during the first attempt at Q3, the order on track was reversed, with the four-time world champion in the wake of the Finn. This also led to a temporary best time for Sebastian Vettel over his team colleague.

Visibly calmer, the person concerned explained himself at a press conference. “No, I didn’t think any of that. Clearly, I wasn't happy, but I won't tell you why. » The driving order does not seem to be involved. “We have an order that changes every round. This time, it was up to Kimi to go second, it was simple. »

Sebastian Vettel continued with his cryptic comments. “If Kimi starts from pole, I guess that means he will be allowed to win the race. It will be a long Grand Prix, he wants to win it, just like me. I hope one of us can do it. »

Finally, the bearer of number 5 recognizes that his “previous rounds were better.” “I wasted time everywhere. » This is possibly the reason for his anger!
