Vettel suffers another qualifying nightmare at German GP
Seb out in Q1.
Sebastian Vettel was eliminated in Q1 during qualifying for the German Grand Prix as he ran into technical trouble on a Saturday yet again this year.
Vettel was unable to run in Q3 in Austria earlier two races prior - with team-mate Charles Leclerc taking pole position.
With Leclerc once again looking a candidate for pole in Hockenheim, Vettel will start at the back of the grid after failing to set a time in Q1.
After emerging for his first run, Vettel reported a lack of power, with immediate suggestions that an air-pressure drop may have been to blame.
"There's an issue - I lost power"

Ferrari confirmed that a turbo failure was to blame for Vettel's hapless Saturday.
We had a turbo related problem on #Seb5’s car. Quali is over for him. #GermanGP
