Sebastian Vettel has rated his performances through the 2019 Formula 1 season soಞ far at 5/10, saying he can "do a better job" through the second half of the year.
Vettel entered F1's summer break with a third-place finish in Sunday's Hungarian Grand Prix, finishing over a minute off race winner Lewis Hamilton as Ferrari's winless s♉tart to the season ܫcontinued.
Vettel and Ferrari have failed to meet the lofty pre-se💟ason expectations that followed its impressiv♒e showing in testing, only competing for victory at a handful of races as Mercedes and, on occasion, Red Bull have pulled clear at the front.
Asked to ra🐭te his season so far out of 10, Vettel settled on giving himself a five.
"Five - I'm not happy with the first half. I thi♍nk I struggled here and there to really get on top of the car," Vettel sa💯id.
"I think we’ve been trying a lot of things so fair enough. Obviou𒆙sly we wanted to squeeze out more, so you’re always 🔯looking for more.
"But I feel I can do a better job in the second half. And five is my number, so꧒ take five."
The same question was put to Vettel's fellow podium finishers in Hungary, with championship lea🍷der Hamilton rating himself at 🦋"like 8.9, 8.8".
"If it wasn’t for the last one, the last race, it w💦ould be a little bit higher," Hamilton said, referring to his difficult Ge🐽rman Grand Prix weekend.
"I think the good thing is always ꩵto score yourself a little bit lower so you’ve more to work on. For sure, it’s been the best start of the season that I think we’ve ever had as a team and I think it’s one of the best seasons that I’ve had personally to start off, but there are areas that we can continue to work on.
"That’s the great thing about this sport, you know, no matter how many years and days you race therꦡe are always areas you can improve on. So let’s see if we can try and up that into the nines or try to get to the 10s in the second half of the season."
Despite finishing second in Hungary to end the openﷺing half of the season with another strong result, Red Bull's Max Verstappen refused to be drawn on what he would score himself at.
"I don’t rate myself in numbers. I hate putting a number on it because it reminds me of school as well, which is not th🦩at long ago," Verstappen said.
"I’m always quite critical and I think it always can be bettꦯer. I’ll never be satisfied.
"I thi♚nk it’s been very positive and I’ve had good results but there are always things to work on."
