Mark Webber is not the only rival enduring a difficult relationship with Sebastian Vettel.<\/p>\n
After the recent Canadian grand prix, German countryman Adrian Sutil mockingly described Vettel, 23, as a “superstar” following a post-race dispute.<\/p>\n
Sutil, who drives for Force India, had told the media Vettel had sarcastically asked him if his rearview mirrors had fallen off during the race.<\/p>\n
Their dispute kicked off again at Silverstone, after Vettel muscled past the 27-year-old on the final lap.<\/p>\n
“He just seemed to drive into me and I lost the racing line and had to move over,” said Sutil in a team statement.<\/p>\n
He had been more forthright in post-race interviews with German television.<\/p>\n
“I had some good battles today,” said Sutil, “but the last one was not fair.\u00a0 Sebastian pushed me off the track and I lost seventh place.<\/p>\n
“It’s annoying.\u00a0 I don’t think that’s the way you have to pass with a car that is two seconds faster,” he added.<\/p>\n
Also to German media, Vettel responded: “It was definitely not intentional and I don’t think it hurt him too much.\u00a0 I don’t think there’s much more to say about it.”<\/p>\n
