#5 Vettel keeps his title hopes alive
One of the constants of this season has been that Vettel and Ferrari have made a number of mistakes that have let Mercedes get ahead. The slip up in Germany, bad strategy calls in Monza and Singapore, and a whole host of other mistakes across the season that have allowed Hamilton to have free reign over the title.
If we are to have an interesting end of season, Vettel will need to pull some points back over Hamilton and cannot afford to finish behind the Brit any more. Mercedes have a 100% record in Russia from the early 1900's to the last four years of races. It would be symbolic if Vettel broke his streak of bad luck by breaking Mercedes streak of victories in Russia.
The season last year pattered out by the time we got to Abu Dhabi as Hamilton had already clinched the championship, this time no matter who wins, we believe that Vettel can hold out just a little longer and that his comeback will start here in Russia.
