The 2012 Formula One season continues this weekend with round 17 from India..
Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel became the first man to win the inaugural race last year, taking the chequered flag in a comfortable victory – leading the entire race from pole position – with McLaren’s Jenson Button finishing second.
That marked the German’s eleventh race victory of 2011, and he is now seeking to win a third straight championship, which has not been achieved since compatriot Michael Schumacher did so a decade ago.
Ferrari’s two-time world-champion Fernando Alonso will be determined to stop him.
