F1, Ferrari: Binotto-Vettel clash after Seb’s flop in Austria

Nerves on the skin between Sebastian Vettel and the Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto after the first Formula 1 Grand Prix in Austria. The German driver, who came tenth later a spin, complained of serious problems to his car, and the manager of Maranello he replied irritably, underlining his mistake on the track.

Glad I only turned around once because it was a difficult race – Vettel hissed -. The car was very difficult to drive. ”

“My race was eventually ruined by that episode: Sainz moved inside, I was pulling away to the limit and I lost the rear. Unfortunately it happened that I lost it a couple of times, that’s why I say I am satisfied to have turned around only once … The car was difficult to drive today, I I gave my best. The Safety Car helped us a bit, the Grand Prix was fun in the end but the result is not what I wanted. “

Binotto’s response, usually diplomatic, has been A slap against Vettel: “With him we lost points, when Red Bull didn’t make it. We had to maximize and instead Sebastian made a mistake. You say the car was not well balanced? When this happens, a driver tends to make mistakes, the fact remains that it could have been done better “.

Congratulations instead for Leclerc: “The second place was a beautiful surprise. I believe that nobody expected it after yesterday’s qualifying. Charles had a fantastic race. He defended when there was to defend and attacked when he could, he made fantastic overtaking. I’m happy with the second place, but we don’t forget the performance problems we have at the moment, like yesterday’s qualifying. We have it very clear. There is a lot to do. Already looking at the next race, our goal is to improve every time “.
