India ready to crown king Vettel
Sebastian Vettel has yet to be beaten on Indian soil. Odds are he will celebrate a fourth consecutive coronation in Sunday's race, reckons EDD STRAW
That Sebastian Vettel will win his fourth consecutive Formula 1 world championship is in no doubt. Exactly when he will clinch it is, but whereas sealing the deal in Japan always depended on Fernando Alonso having a disaster, in India Vettel needs only a top-five finish.
Given that he has only failed to do that once this season, in Britain where he retired while leading, the odds are very much against Vettel having to go to Abu Dhabi to take the title.
