Vettel on British GP struggles: 'Something doesn't stack up'

Sebastian Vettel was at a loss to explain his poor performance at the British Grand Prix, where he finished tenth as teammate Charles Leclerc claimed Ferrari's second podium of the season.

Vettel was on the back foot from the beginning of the weekend, with car issues robbing him of track time during Friday practice, but he never looked like he was comfortable with the car. He qualified in the same position he finished and spent much of the race outside of the points on merit.

He rose to inherit tenth position late on after Valtteri Bottas dropped own the order following his late puncture, something which also elevated Leclerc, who had been running fourth for most of the race.
