Vettel: No regrets over Kvyat confrontation

Ferrari driver Vettel was angry with his Red Bull rival after the Russian dove down the inside at Turn 1, the German saying he had come "like a torpedo".

Vettel crashed into teammate Kimi Raikkonen as as result, and the four-time champion was seen in a heated exchange with Kvyat before the podium ceremony.

Although onboard replays showed that Kvyat had a clear line to dive down the inside of Vettel, the Ferrari driver says he has not changed his view about what happened.

"Everything that has been said or needed to be said has been said," Vettel said. "I spoke to him straight away in the room before the podium.

"I didn't know it was on camera but it doesn't change anything. I would say the same again.

"For sure after the race you're a bit hot and the emotions are pumping, but that's what we want, so why should I sit here and say maybe I should have been a little bit more quiet?

"I think we are racing and you also say things that sometimes afterwards you wouldn't say exactly the same, but in that situation I said it the way I said it.

"I don't think I said anything bad; I get along with him really well. We are racing in the end it was a racing incident. Of course, it was probably the best outcome for him, but these things happen."
