Sebastian Vettel: I feel like I let Monza crowd down

MONZA, Italy -- Sebastian Vettel admits he let down Ferrari's Tifosi at the Italian Grand Prix on Sunday after the team missed out on its first victory at Monza since 2010.

Vettel started on the front row of the grid behind teammate Kimi Raikkonen on pole position but by the end of the race they had been demoted to fourth and second. Vettel's chances slipped away at the second chicane when contact with title rival Lewis Hamilton pitched him into a spin and dropped him to the back of the order.

"Obviously it's a disappointment for the weekend, for the people [who came here]," he said fter the race.
