It's wrong to assign pole position stat to Sprint winner – Vettel

The winner of the 100km Sprint race on Saturday will be credited with pole position at Silverstone, rather than the quickest driver in Friday’s qualifying that sets the grid for the Sprint. While Vettel is open-minded about the potential of the new format this weekend, he believes the pole position definition isn’t correct in his view.
