JAKARTA - Sebastian Vettel lost control of his car on the opening lap of the Silverstone Circuit, England, Sunday, August 9 night, which sent him thrown into the rear position. The German racer was annoyed and sprayed the Ferrari team.
The four-time world champion's relationship with Ferrari is no longer intimate following their decision to split after the end of this season. Vettel accused Ferrari of screwing up the race by employing an absurd strategy.
Vettel at the Grand Prix celebrating the 70th anniversary of Formula 1 asked the team's strategy when he was only able to finish P12.
After returning to the track from his first pitstop, Vettel radioed the team, "you know you messed up."
"We talked this morning and said if there is no point in getting into the pits if we are blocked by traffic - and that's exactly what we experienced," Vettel said as quoted by Antara on Monday.
"We also use hard tires, which only last for 10 laps, maybe not even that long, so it doesn't make sense.
"What do you guys put in the hard for 10 laps and put on the medium for 20 laps? So I ran out of tires towards the end of the race, we've covered that exactly."
Earlier this week, Vettel also had no answer as to why he had such a hard time driving the SF1000.
Vettel is ranked 13th in the riders' standings after five races with 10 points. Vettel's best finish this season was 6th in Hungary and he has finished P10 twice.
