Formula One Features — September 2018

If you would have asked me three weeks ago who had a better chance of equalling Juan Manuel Fangio's feat of winning five Formula One World Championships I would have put Sebastian Vettel's name forward, even though he was trailing Hamilton by quite a decent margin. Ask me again today and the answer will have to be different. Spa-Francorchamps apart, since the German Grand Prix, the Ferrari driver's challenge has melted in a spectacular way, through his own mistakes but also through the team's sudden lack of efficiency.
