Lewis Hamilton has tipped Sebastian Vettel to bounce back from the latest in his expanding catalogue of mistakes.
Vettel spun out of contention while battling for second position with Hamilton in Sunday's Bahrain Grand Prix.
It marked the fourth time in his last 10 appearances that the Ferrari driver has lost control of his car while duelling with a rival.
He also crashed out of the lead 13 races ago in Germany, and will head into the next round in China a week on Sunday on a 231-day winless streak.
They will head to Shanghai for the next round expected to maintain their advantage over Mercedes.
Hamilton, who celebrated the first win of his championship defence with a 45-minute workout at his hotel gym in downtown Bahrain, said: "We were outperformed this weekend.
"We are conscious and aware how lucky we were to come away with a one-two finish. We can't be jumping around in excitement because I know that Charles did the job and he should have won."
