He may be among the best in the business currently, but Sebastian Vettel has had to scratch and claw for most of his 51 Formula One victories, including his most recent one at the British Grand Prix.

Vettel made history in 2008 when he became the youngest ever driver to win an F1 race at the Italian Grand Prix in a measly Toro-Rosso. It showed the sheer class this young driver possessed and had teams scrambling to sign him up as soon as possible.

He finished second the following year with Red Bull Racing but it wasn't long before the Vettel storm took over the world of F1. He dominated the sport from 2010-2013 winning four consecutive World Championships before choosing to sign with Ferrari in 2015. After finishing second behind Lewis Hamilton last season, Vettel is widely tipped to go one better this time around and win his fifth driver's championship.
