Kiwi F1 driver Brendon Hartley sets the record for Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel.
F1 driver Brendon Hartley will kick off the Grand Prix of Germany from the 17th after a few tough days at Hockenheim, only relieved by a comical moment in which he corrected Sebastian Vettel in a press conference blooper.
Vettel, who started pole in Saturday's race (Sunday NZT) was asked at a press conference on Monaco driver Charles Leclerc and how he would feel to have him in his team rather than Kimi Raikonnen.
"I do not know much about Charles I know a little bit about the program, but yes, Kimi is Finnish, Charles is French, I think they're very different," Vettel says, encouraging an off-camera correction of Hartley .

" To do it here, just minutes from where I was born and where I grew up, that means a lot ", has said Vettel. "I'm confident for tomorrow."
Vettel won the German GP only once – five years ago when it was held at the Nürburgring – but never at Hockeneim. His leading position of 55th position was even softer
"Today, I am one of my best, I have a mixed relationship with this track, for whatever reason," says Vettel . "title =" "src =" https://resources.stuff.co.nz/content/dam/images/1/q/w/t/x/v/image.related.StuffLandscapeSixteenByNine.620×349.1qwti8.png/ 1532224188805.jpg "class =" photoborder "/>
