Vettel already resigned
A debut at the Formula One World Championship to forget. Sebastian Vettel's Sunday is one of those to be filed under "what to forget quickly". Negative weekend for the German Ferrari champion, who started undertone in free practice and qualifying and then spun on the Austrian circuit. The first Grand Prix of an anomalous season started under a bad star and the almost accident with Carlos Sainz - the man who will take his place in Maranello - seems to herald what will happen when the curtain falls even on this reduced edition of the " circus ". The Spaniard closes the road, blocks his pace when cornering and slows down his attempt to overtake: clearer than that ...
To make the Vettel race even more opaque is also the good performance of Leclerc who managed to conquer an unexpected podium aboard a car that, in light of what was seen on the track, appears slower than last year. From seventh to second place: better than that it was not possible to do and the Monegasque did it by giving the Red a smile in three fairly gray days. Nothing to do, however, for the teammate who thus commented on his performance.
I'm almost happy to have turned around once - admitted Vettel with irony -. It was really difficult for me today.
