A tyre blunder from Ferrari in qualifying resulted in Vettel starting Sunday’s 𒀰race from eighth on the Suzuka grid, before he clashed with Red Bull’s Max Verstappen and ended up finishing a distant sixth.
"I think we have great p𒆙otential ✤in this team," Vettel insisted.
"Obviously the last weꦡeks have been tough for us. Overall though I think we could be in a better place. We are not. So that happened for a reason.
"But we look forward, and even if the last weeks have been difficult, the spirit inside the te♑am, if you look at the guys and 🥂so on, it is incredible how powerful they are, how strong they are, how positive they are throughout.
"That made this team always very strong and will make this team strong in the next race and in thꦚe future. We know that we still have a lot of potential to unleash and we need to work and dig a little bit deeper and so on.
"But for now obviously, we wanꦡt to prove the last races are not what we can deliver.”
Meanwhile Ferrari team principal Maurizio Arrivabene - who reacted furiously to the Scuderia’s qualifying mistake in Japan - has called on his squad🐽 to “challenge the impossible” with it🐭s title hopes seemingly hanging by a thread.
