Martin Brundle snubs Sebastian Vettel when he classifies the best drivers on the F1 grid | F1 | Sports

In a chaotic race due to the weather, the 34-year-old Esteban Ocon relentlessly pursued for victory, but was disqualified from second place after the race because an adequate fuel sample could not be taken from his Aston Martin.

When Brundle was asked to list his top 5, there was no room for Vettel.

“Lewis [Hamilton], Max [Verstappen], then I would say Lando [Norris] and Charles Leclerc, ”said the 62-year-old. “Who would be my fifth driver?

“It could be George [Russell]. Maybe Sergio [Perez], I could even go to Carlos Sainz or Fernando [Alonso], Strictly speaking.

“Fernando is definitely one of them, now he’s back in top form, but no matter how I cut it, I don’t count Seb.”

Valtteri Bottas, Daniel Ricciardo or the impressive Pierre Gasly were also not mentioned.
