The 2022 season had interesting F1 action over the six races so far. Now, the drivers are in Monaco for the seventh race of the season. After a chaotic Saturday qualifying, the F1 drivers assembled at the Monaco Circuit for the Sunday race.
The drivers got on a truck for the drivers’ parade ahead of the race. While every driver got on the truck, Vettel didn’t. And this worried Mick. Not seeing Seb, Mick got nervous and started looking for him. Then the four-time world champion appeared from behind, and then only the young German calmed down.

Will Vettel score points in the Monaco GP?
The ongoing season isn’t going as planned for the four-time world champion. Vettel scored only four points in 2022, thanks to his P8 finish in the Emilia Romagna GP. However, it seems the German found a little pace in Monaco.

This season, the 34-year-old hasn’t started in the top 10 in any of the last six races. However, Vettel ended that period by qualifying P9 for the Monaco GP. Seb was happy with his first top 10 qualifying result this season but hoped to finish in a better position in the Sunday Grand Prix.
Vettel said, “If it’s a normal dry race, it’s good to be in the position we are in, as we’re starting in the points, and then we will see. I think with tires, and it will be difficult to manage.”
