Vettel frustrated by poor qualifying
Sebastian Vettel is angry at himself after he missed an opportunity to challenge for pole position ahead of tomorrow’s Chinese Grand Prix.
The Ferrari driver went wide in Turn 14 and spoilt his lap, meaning he will line up fourth for the race, behind team-mate Kimi Raikkonen.
With Lewis Hamilton out of contention and Ferrari enjoying similar pace to eventual pole-sitter Nico Rosberg, Vettel is frustrated by his late mistake.
"I'm not entirely satisfied with where we qualified," he said.
"I think the first was there, at least P2 was there for grabs, but the lap I had wasn't good enough.
"I started off on the wrong foot, probably asked too much from the tyres already on the first sector, and from then on I was playing catch up.
"I was confident I could do the same job with just one set. Now I know I couldn't, because the lap wasn't as good as it should have been.
"It was not my best lap of the weekend."
