F1: 5 Talking Points after the British GP 2019

#2 Vettel is facing the perfect storm

Nothing is going right for Vettel at the moment

For a marriage that promised so much, the Vettel-Ferrari association could be on its last legs.

Sebastian Vettel is facing what could be aptly described as a perfect storm. It was something similar to what he faced in 2014 when he decided to move to Ferrari from Red Bull. He seems to have fallen out of love with the sport. The car he's driving was supposed to be the class of the field but it can't even turn properly on most circuits which just kills whatever motivation he has left.

To add to this, he just doesn't have luck on his side. He should have won the Canadian GP but was robbed of the victory. Looking at his pace in Austria, he could have challenged for the win but that was taken away from him as well with a faulty engine in qualifying.

To add to all this, he has his young charging teammate firing on all cylinders. Vettel's credibility is taking a serious hit during his time at Ferrari and maybe, it's time for him to look for a change.
