Sebastian Vettel says that Red Bull learned very little in today’s wet practice at Silverstone – and the German admits he felt sorry for fans who waited patiently and saw relatively little track action.
Vettel was 11th and 13th in the two rain-hit sessions.
“I think we saved the tyres by not running!,” said Vettel. “This afternoon there was too much water. It’s pretty tricky in these conditions, I think it’s more of a shame for the fans sitting in the grandstands waiting for the cars to come out, and we didn’t come. A little bit at the end, but basically a little bit of a waste, because you can’t really try anything.
“We’ll see what happens tomorrow. I think the weather will be the most important thing in determining the rest of the weekend, so hopefully we’ll get some running tomorrow morning and then get ready for qualifying.”
