Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel arrived in Monaco heading the Formula 1 championship standings and adamant, that despite winning two races so far, he could have bagged five victories out of five races thus far.
Vettel told Sky Sports, “We were there in all the five races and we could have won all five races if things were turning out a bit differently, but they didn’t. Sometimes you end up being on the luckier side, sometimes not, but I think we have a long season ahead of us. Stuff like that will equal out.”
Instead of winning all five Vettel has won two grand prix, in Australia and Brazil, and finished second in the other three, including last time out in Spain.
“But, as I said, most important is that we were there. We had scruffy Fridays, rough Saturdays, but we were always there in the race, that’s what matters. We have a strong package, we have a strong car and we are doing the right things, so not so worried of getting the points we deserve.
“We got the points we deserved so far, here and there people just did a better job overall, but I think we have plenty to look forward to. I’m looking forward to it. We have a very strong package and we are a very strong team, so we don’t have anything to be afraid of.”
“But if you look at the last couple of years, Mercedes was very strong around here so they will be the ones naturally to beat. But I’m confident we can have a good weekend,” declared Vettel who tops the standings by six points but has only won once in Monaco, back in 2011.
Big Question: Is Sebastian dreaming or were five wins possible for Ferrari in the first five races?
