Vettel does not fear the cold at the Russian GP

Sebastian Vettel seems confident for the Russian GP held on April 30 in Sochi. The pilot of the Team Ferrari can count on the performance of the SF70H which allowed it to win in Melbourne (Australia) and on the Sakhir circuit (Bahrain), even if these two meetings were contested in summer conditions.

Although temperatures should be cooler in Sochi, Sebastian Vettel is nevertheless confident about his chances of success.

"I don't think it will be a problem for us, we should be able to manage, explained Sebastian Vettel. We had already managed well in China even though it was quite cold. I haven't looked at the weather forecast because it's constantly changing. We'll see when the time comes. »

“Sochi is a less abrasive circuit for the tires and we can do quite long stints, underlined the Ferrari driver. I hope that we can rely more on the rhythm of our car than on tire management. »

Sebastian Vettel leads the Championship with a lead of 7 points over Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes).
