Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel will be keen to record his maiden win of the 2020 season at the Spanish Grand Prix title on August 16.
 
The German driver is a four-time Formula One world champion and he has won the Spanish Grand Prix once (in 2011).
 
Vettel finished fourth in last year's race ahead of his teammate Charles Leclerc, who settled for the fifth spot.

The 33-year-old driver reflected on his disappointing performances at the British and 70th Anniversary Grand Prix which were both held in Silverstone. 
 
"Honestly, I think my pace was the same for both races at Silverstone, I don't think there was an improvement," Vettel said. 
 
"The feeling was a bit better than last week, but the performance was the same. The pace was the same, and that's a question mark, 
 
"But I can't do much about it. I will have to try to keep doing my best and keep calm as much as possible, looking ahead to next week."
 
Mercedes are placed at the top of Constructors' standings followed by Red Bull and Ferrari respectively.
