Vettel to attack in season opener
FOUR-TIME Formula One world champion Sebastian Vettel has said he plans to go on the attack in Sunday’s season-opening Australian Grand Prix, despite problems with his Red Bull car.
“We have been very successful in the last few years, but now things are a bit more difficult, we will start the season at a bit of a disadvantage,” Vettel told broadcaster Servus TV. “That means we have to fight, charge forward and take everything we can get.”
Vettel endured a frustrating four days of testing in Bahrain 10 days ago due to electrical issues and engine problems. He said the problems were caused partly by the car’s new drivetrain.
“It’s down to the changes in the regulations. We have a completely new drivetrain that has given us a lot of worry so far,” he said. “It’s very complex and we are having difficulties even to understand everything. When a small part doesn’t fit properly, then the car just won’t go.”
