"Maybe we should do something else, but I do not want to blame one. It is unfortunate withdrawal of the other car, but today was positive. It is clear that the team in good condition, as we know that we can progress and put pressure on the Mercedes."
Vettel: Ferrari are very close
Despite the disappointment, however, that the German Said the progress made by his team as it feels that he has become closer than ever to Mercedes.
"Certainly we are now much closer than last year," said Vettel, then continued, "This is one of the worst circuits for us. We expected to be stronger during the qualifying session, but it did not happen as it was difficult to share a little bit."
