Vettel is not enthusiastic about winning the award
The 34-year-old has had a lackluster year at Aston Martin. But even if he has made progress, as he is currently leading the race for most overtaking maneuvers this season, the German is not interested in it, but is happy about the improvement shown.
In an interview with Motorsport.com, Vettel said: “Whether you count it or not, ideally you can’t beat everyone and win all races all year round. Of course, the transition is fun, but it’s not always easy. It feels good when you do it. “(Translated from Turkish via Google)
