Video: Vettel admits to “first time” failure
GPFans rounds up some of the latest F1 news
Sebastian Vettel has conceded he has failed to extract the optimum performance from the Ferrari SF1000 across the 2020 season to date.
Vettel will leave Ferrari at the end of the year and join Racing Point, the team set to be rebranded as Aston Martin.
However, ahead of his move, the German has reflected that, for the first time in his career, he has been unable to "extract the maximum" from his machinery.
