Sebastian Vettel managed to secure his 11th victory this season at the inaugural Indian Grand Prix at the Buddh International Circuit. While the German driver’s season is all going according to plan, the track’s debut didn’t go as smoothly, as stray dogs frequently found their way onto the new track and the slippery surface of the track proved problematic for some.
However, Vettel’s victory secured from pole position proved he had what it takes to secure both his and Red Bull Racing’s constructor title. What’s more Sebastian was a lights-to-flag job, so he secured a new record, that of the most laps led during a season, a record that previously belonged to Nigel Mansell since 1992.
