Description

A tour de force as he swept to four straight world championship crowns and countless Formula One records, Sebastian Vettel ’s relentless hunger for victory, as much as his outstanding talent, secure his place as one of the sport’s greats.

By his mid-20s he was already the dominant driver of his era, becoming the youngest polesitter, winner and champion in history. A second, third and fourth crown, won with either remarkable tenacity or crushing supremacy, only added to his glittering legacy.

The foundations for such a remarkable trajectory were laid early on. Sebastian Vettel had been racing for more than a decade even while still a teenager, having started his career in 1995 at a local kart track in his native Germany, where he had been born in Heppenheim on July 3, 1987. It wasn’t long before he had notched up several regional championships, and bigger things beckoned. Tiring of the local competition, he began to race on a European level.

Before long he’d won the region’s junior kart title and even clinched victories at prestigious annual events in Monaco and Paris-Bercy. As he began to make a name for himself, Vettel attracted the attentions of Red Bull, who swiftly signed him up to their young driver programme in 1998.

With Red Bull’s backing, Sebastian Vettel continued to perform well and in 2000 was invited to join the Austrian drinks company’s junior team. Two seasons of karting later – still aged just 15 – he was ready to make the switch to single-seaters. Debuting in the hugely-competitive Formula BMW series in 2003, Vettel faced a tough challenge, but he didn’t disappoint, scoring five wins and ending the season second in the championship…

Team Bio

The prancing horse has returned to the all red livery for the new 2018 Ferrari Formula 1 car, which looks ready to challenge Mercedes-AMG and Red Bull Racing for the title once again. The cars chassis has seen extensive changes with a longer wheelbase than its predecessor, further revised aerodynamic package, updated cooling system and an even more aggressive sidepod design.

Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen remain as the two drivers at Scuderia Ferrari, and stand as a very experienced duo who have both won world championships. Vettel enters the new season with the edge of his team mate for the last few seasons having finished with more wins and points at the end of the year. Raikkonen will be eager to put the past behind him and hopefully once again show his full potential on the track for a strong showing.

“The SF71H represents an evolution of last year’s car, which was already a good project,” explained Technical Director, Mattia Binotto. “We’ve tried to retain the strengths. Our strengths I would say first is aggressiveness in some of the concepts. We designed a car that was somehow performing very well on low speed circuits, but we knew we had to work on new areas of development. For example, trying to develop the car to be strong in performance on the high-speed circuits, but also on reliability.”
