It was another good session for Sebastian Vettel at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix qualifying. The Four-time world champion looked comfortable and was on top of his car throughout the session. But there was one scary moment that might have made some concern for his fans.

During his second run in the Q2 session, he went off and hit the barriers in Turn 15 of the track. Although he did not get any damage to the car, he mentioned in his post-race interview that he was confused about whether he should take the escape road.

“Here you have so many big stops and you know yourself. If you get the timing right, it just flows. If you don’t then, you’re either too early or you’re looking at not a good prospect. Like I had once at the moment in 15, so then I was thinking, can I make it? Yes, then I realize no.”

“Then I was like if I go to the right, I might clip the left side and still have a bit of speed, so then it’s better head-on because we have a spare front wing and that worked,” said Vettel.

There is a chance that Vettel can move up the grid on Sunday with a good launch from the start. He showed some decent race pace as well in the long runs on Friday. But the Aston Martin driver mentioned that the 2022 cars are not the easiest to drive.

” It’s tricky. I think everybody is on the limit, but I had easier cars to drive,” said the Aston Martin driver.
