Sebastian Vettel showed himself at his best in qualifying when he stopped at the wreck of Lando Norris, who had a hard crash in Radillon. However, the German was not satisfied with the work of race director Michael Masi during qualifying in Spa-Francorchamps.

“I think Michael is not proud of what happened,” said Vettel angrily at Sky Sports F1. According to Vettel, it is easy for the race management to talk about it afterwards. “He’s not a captain in hindsight. When I went down Eau Rouge and got up there was a lot of stagnant water. There are many things we can do. It could have turned out differently for Lando.”
According to Vettel, the red flag should have been waved earlier. “It’s always difficult to judge, but I think the red flag should have been waved earlier. You can’t see much of the garage, just TV recordings. But if you know that the marshals are reporting that there is too much rain and water, then the light should not turn green, “concluded the Aston Martin driver.

Norris rammed the back of his car into the tire wall and finished his qualifying run. Vettel was at the scene first and didn’t drive away until Norris gave him a thumbs up. The young Briton was taken to the hospital, where he had some x-rays of his elbow taken to be on the safe side.
