Sebastian Vettel has said that he may have missed out on pole position for the Hungarian Grand Prix because of a lack of aggression.
The reigning world champion will start tomorrow's race in second place after finishing qualifying 0.038 seconds behind Lewis Hamilton of Mercedes.
The Red Bull driver told reporters: "There wasn't much missing, so Lewis did a good job, put a strong lap in. I was pretty happy with both laps.
"I was losing out a little in the middle sector, maybe I wasn't aggressive enough. But in the end I was happy with my lap but it was just not quick enough.
"Lewis did a good job as you can see from the gap to Nico [Rosberg], you have to respect that."
Vettel has never won a Formula 1 race at the Hungaroring.
