Sebastian Vettel finished 16th in second free practice on Friday. In the end, it's the driver Ferrari it took as much as 1,953 seconds to reach the time Max Verstappen, nevertheless, the Heppenheimian sees some progress.
"It was much better than last week," he says Hag , who had big problems with the balance of the car in the last race and complained about the handling Ferrari SF1000. Vettel also revealed the reasons why well-being was not expressed at the time of the round: "Unfortunately, they deleted my fast lap time."
The German was not the only one on Friday. Drivers have had their times canceled several times for exceeding track limits. In addition Ferrari he did not focus on fast laps in training, as they wanted to get to know the upgrades they introduced, he explains Nemec: "The main focus on our part was to make improvements."
This time he felt better in the car from the beginning: “It was immediately a different car than it was a week ago. ” But even then, he was a driver Ferrari on Friday still happy with his SF1000until he felt completely different in it on Sunday (read: bad): "It couldn't be compared."

Regarding the ranking, he would like his 16. place in training he could still take revenge if he would qualifications on Saturday due to the forecasted rain actually canceled. Then the result of the second free practice would determine the order at the start of the race.
All Hag remains confident and hopes for wet qualifications: “I think that should increase our chances. We'll see. It also depends on how wet it will be. If it rains so hard that no one can drive, then it's something else, but if the amount of rainfall isn't too much, it's definitely going to be quite upsetting. ”
