Not only the winner and world champion Lewis Hamilton had every reason to be happy after the Turkish GP. Ferrari star Sebastian Vettel was also able to cheer. The Heppenheimer received much praise for his performance.
In the end it was enough to get on the podium: Sebastian Vettel, who was able to take on the Istanbul GP from eleventh on the grid, reached third position on the first lap. The four-time world champion, who has since regressed, did everything right and seized his chance when his Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc, who was in front of him, missed in a final attack on Sergio Pérez on the last lap of the race. .
Vettel, who had climbed back to fourth position, thanked him and beat Monegassen, with whom he landed third on the podium, which he shared with Sergio Pérez and the winner and world champion Lewis Hamilton. The Briton won his seventh title and thus reached Michael Schumacher’s record, which was long considered unattainable.
In a TV interview with Sky Sports F1, the Heppenheimer also demonstrated his class off the track: “I was pretty sure Lewis couldn’t drive these tires all the way, but he obviously pulled it off. He drove a fantastic” race and although it was a good result for us, we must admit with envy that today is his day. When you write history this way, it comes first and what it has accomplished is amazing. I’m happy to be able to experience that up close. “
GP experts praised the performance of the Ferrari star, who will be on Aston Martin’s starting grid in the premier class next year. “It was great to see him drive this race, and the last lap was excellent too,” enthused GP veteran Johnny Herbert. “He is four times world champion and you can see that today.”
Karun Chandhok agreed with the Briton: “He started eleventh on the grid and was already third after the first lap. He made a great start, outplayed the Alphas immediately and crossed the field, and was also very strong on the last lap. He took the opportunity Leclerc offered him with the brake when he was trying to overtake. “
There were also good words from Vettel’s compatriot, Timo Glock. “That made me very, very happy, because this GP was an opportunity for him to demonstrate his extra class once again, and he did. In fact, he did it like Lewis, he got the most out of his car and, in the end, he hit again, ”he enthused on RTL.
