F1 | Vettel: “The real power of Mercedes is qualifying”
"It's something we can't improve on. Of course, we're working, but it can't be done overnight"
The step of Mercedes from free practice to the race it's something uncontrollable, it's a "turning point" according to Sebastian Vettel which, after the disappointment of Silverstone Grand Prix of last week, he understands that with his Ferrari he is continuing to lose a lot of ground from the silver arrows but above all he has seen the gap inexorably reduced.
“It's probably true that in the last couple of races the Mercedes it was a little more strong, but I believe that the real game and their real strength are the qualifications! I'm able to run it very well engine e earn from three to six tenths only in straight lines", commented Sebastian Vettel.
“It's something we're at a loss for improve. Obviously, we are working, but such a huge improvement cannot be made overnight. And this is a problem, especially if you find yourself with other cars in front on the first lap, at the first corner, the whole race then changes", concluded the German.
