Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel has claimed that his overall speed in the Hungarian Grand Prix was deserving of a higher finish than fourth.

Starting third on the grid, Vettel found himself behind Jenson Button's McLaren early on and could not get past the Brit for the rest of the race, and the German has said that this meant Red Bull could not make the most of their pace.

"I think our overall speed was better than the actual result we got today," Vettel said. "I was stuck behind Jenson in the first stint. He was slower and we lost some time there.

"The race pace was very good, so now it's up to us to do better in qualifying and at the start. Then it's a different race."

Vettel has won one race so far this season.
