German Sebastian Vettel made his F1 debut at the 2007 United States Grand Prix driving for BMW Sauber at the age of 19.

In September 2008, driving for Team Torro Rosso, he became the youngest pole-sitter and race winner when he won the Italian Grand Prix at Monza. Till date, he is the youngest ever driver to start from pole position.

Vettel forged a successful partnership with Team Red Bull winning 4 Drivers' Championships between 2010-2013 inclusive. His title-winning season in 2013 is one of the most prolific displays of Driver dominance over the course of a single season.

With 13 race wins and 15 pole-positions in a single season, Vettel set a new benchmark. In 216 race starts, Vettel has stood on the podium 109 times and will look to add a lot more to his tally.
