Formula 1 | Stroll and Vettel think they could have finished higher

Lance Stroll started tenth in the Dutch Grand Prix and finished in the same position. The Aston Martin F1 driver regrets a bit of bad luck on the pit stop at the end of the race, which cost him the possibility of finishing three places in front, according to him.

« Yes, we were in position to finish seventh, something like that. We were unlucky with the safety car. Both Alpine and Norris stopped under the safety car, and it cost us three places. « Regrets Stroll, who sees positive in the rhythm of his team. « I think it was a very competitive weekend for us. »

Sebastian Vettel finished 14th after starting 19th, but he especially regrets a failed pit stop: « We didn’t have good speed in the race, but a bit more than where we finished. The first stop was very slow, we lost a lot of time and it was over. »

The German fought a great battle against Mick Schumacher: « I had fun, it’s disappointing for him. He started from the points, I started penultimate, and we ended up in the middle! It wasn’t our best moments in both of us, but at least we had fun. »
