5 Memorable race wins from Sebastian Vettel

Italian Formula One Grand Prix: Race
Vettel's first win came representing Torro Rosso

#2 2008 Italian Grand Prix

<p>
Vettel's first ever win in F1

September 14, 2008 - a 21-year-old inexperienced version of Vettel was behind the wheel of a Toro Rosso at the Italian Grand Prix.

The day before saw the German achieve his first ever pole position ahead of McLaren's Heikki Kovalainen and future teammate Webber.

The weekend's weather was invaded by dark clouds and plenty of rain over the Monza circuit.

But despite the little experience the 21-year-old had leading an F1 race, Vettel crossed the finish line in first place in an Italian car to seal a memorable moment in the history of the sport.

The first many for Vettel and that race just show how talented the world champion really is - it was certainly no luck in that victory.
