Sebastian Vettel: “Mercedes doesn't surprise me but we can improve”

Third place at the conclusion of the first day of Hungarian GP for Sebastian Vettel, but almost a second behind the top for the German's Red, also preceded by Red Bull di Ricciardo. The pilot of Ferrari he certainly didn't appear surprised at the superiority shown by his rivals Mercedes, but trust that the men of Maranello they will be able to develop a car capable of making the most of its potential ahead of Saturday.

“I'm not entirely satisfied with the balance of the car but I think that overnight we can improve it and thus be more competitive in sectors one, two and three,” he explained Hag at the end of the day. “It's no surprise that the Mercedes it went so well. For us this afternoon was a bit of a mix of situations: the car is good but we need to implement a little here and there and so we should find ourselves in a better position tomorrow. It was obvious that the Mercedes she would be in front in both sessions. I haven't seen the long runs but, like I said, we have to work on it and then we'll see where we are.

“However, I'm not so sure that they made who knows what leap in terms of fastest lap. Here it is very important to feel the car and then I think we could improve. We'll talk about it again tomorrow,” concluded the four-time world champion.
