The 2020 season did not treat Sebastian Vettel very well, as the German remained out of the top 10 for most of the race weekends. Recently, Vettel revealed that despite “swimming against the current“This season, he is happy to continue in Formula 1 until 2021.

During the press conference in Turkey, the interviewer asked Vettel what his conclusions were from a rather disappointing performance this season. “I think in the bigger picture, I am still swimming and will continue swimming“, Vettel clarified.

“So, I think that’s the real one, not the conclusion, but probably a lesson to myself that I’m happy to keep swimming despite, as you say, the tide is perhaps facing the opposite way. “

Vettel has yet to finish in the top 10 in the drivers’ standings. As of now, the German is sitting in P14 after scoring a measly 18 points. Meanwhile, his teammate has been notable by consistently churning out the top 10 places.

Sebastian Vettel looking for ways to find a “swim better“

The four-time world champion has hinted that he is looking to get back in shape after his move to Aston Martin Racing next season. “I think you are always looking for other ways and alternatives to find a better swim, “He said.

“But yeah, I’m pretty sure there’s something left for me and I can’t wait. So, I think the real answer is that I’m happy to continue swimming“Added Vettel.

Although Vettel has struggled over the course of this season, he still has four more races to put an impressive end to his 2020 outing.

Will Vettel manage to break his streak of poor performances in Turkey this weekend?

The chances of seeing Vettel enter the top 8 at the Turkish Grand Prix are very slim. The nature of the circuit may be a bit too fast for Ferrari, as the Maranello house’s strengths are limited to low-speed circuits.

However, the fact that Istanbul Park hasn’t seen racing in nearly a decade means that the track will be green and very slippery during the early part of the weekend.

So, if Vettel could get his car in the right places on the circuit, he would definitely have a chance to get his car to the points. But will he succeed?
