Sebastian Vettel suggests ‘Impatience’ Botched Qualifying at Imola

Sebastian Vettel

Sebastian Vettel surely hasn’t got onto even a decent pace in the 2021 season so far. Having to answer his critics after the horrendous 2020 season, the same form has been followed by Vettel even when he made his debut in Bahrain. Now, as we head into the second round at Imola, it seems like the 4-time World Champion is yet to get a hang of his car. 

After a closely contested Q2 session, Vettel ended up in the 13th position. He is still not up to grip with the AMR21 car. But he tried to push the limit too much out of impatience and ‘lost a little bit.’ Whereas his teammate Lance Stroll side-lined his yet again making it into the final session. 

What did Sebastian Vettel say?

“Obviously I’m not a very patient guy, so I don’t want to wait. But it is getting a lot better. On a track like this in particular, you need the ultimate confidence to extract everything. I’m not yet there, but it’s only the second race, so I guess I have to be a bit more patient,” said Sebastian Vettel post qualifying. 

Surely wth his current car, Sebastian Vettel is yet to find his feet. When he does, he believes that the results will reflect on track, “The car is quite different to what I was used to in the past. There’s a couple of things, nowadays with tyres, and how you set up the car etc, can make quite a big difference.” 

“So that’s why I think it’s taking me maybe a bit longer than normal. Honestly in all fairness as well, for the ultimate tenths that you’re fighting in the midfield, then you see the consequence straight away.”
