Sebastian Vettel says he found S✱unday's Monaco Grand Prix a "very intense" race despite controlling its second half en route t꧂o his third Formula 1 victory of the season.
Vettel ran second through the early part of the race behind Ferrari team-mate Kimi Raikkonen before leapfrogging the Finn through the pit stops, and then proceeding to open up a 10-secon꧒d lead.
Vettel's advantage was wiped away by a late safety car, but he was able to sta♚y calm and pღull clear once again on the restart before crossing the line for his second win in Monaco, and Ferrari's first since 2001.
"I think it was a very, very intense race," Vettel said after the♍ 🙈race. "I was hoping at the start to have a bit of a better launch, but Kimi had a good start, I had nowhere to go. I had to be patient.
"There wa𒅌s a phase in the first stint where it was really tr🤪icky, the tyres started to slide, I think you remember how it feels. It was quite uncomfortable. I think Valtteri [Bottas] and the pack was catching up a bit, we were facing some traffic.
"But then I had I don't know, like a second attempt, a second set of tyres. I had some laps where the car was really, really good. I pushed everyth🍰ing I had 🧸because I knew if there is a chance to win, then that's it. So I was able to use that window and came out ahead.
"At that point obviously I could control the race. After the restart it was really tricky with the cold tyres, I think every one of us was struggling. Daniel [Ricciardo] said he brushed the wall on Turn 1 on th🍃e first lap. So it was really, really difficult, but after a couple of laps I was able to get into control the gap behind♛.
"Fantastic job, the team has 𓃲done❀ really well. Great thanks to them and a fantastic weekend for Ferrari."
