2011 FORMULA 1 WORLD CHAMPION
THE SEASON IN HIS OWN WORDS

SEBASTIAN VETTEL: ANOTHER ONE
forewordIn 2010 Sebastian Vettel snuck in at the last race of the season to clinch the Formula 1 world championship, and in doing so he became the youngest ever F1 world champion. In 2011 he raised his game substantially and trounced his rivals to score his second world title - obviously the youngest driver in history to do so, long before the season was over.
His achievements are astounding, considering that his peers include four world champions, and a formidable bunch they are too: Jenson Button, Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher.
In the process of annexing his second crown the 24 year old German roared into the record books to claim the most pole positions in one season (15) while amassing 392 points, 11 victories and 17 podium finishes out of a possible 19. He hates the word ‘dominant’, but this was a dominant performance, even by Formula 1 standards. He is sure to feature prominently in the history of the sport for as long as it will be recorded.
Here we look back at the longest season ever, through the eyes of some of the best motorsport photographers in the world, who cover the sport with an obvious passion.
We thank the team of Getty Images photographers who provide an unrivalled photo service to the media, on behalf of Red Bull Racing, and salute their vision and artistry. Also, special thanks to Sutton Images who fill in the ‘missing’ images from their own, unique and unrivalled archive of F1 imagery.
Enjoy the visual feast which honours the enormous talents of a most remarkable young racing driver and all round nice guy - Sebastian Vettel - this is the story of his magnificent 2011 world championship season, told in his own words.

SEBASTIAN VETTEL: ANOTHER ONE
preseason
It feels at least as good now as it did when I crossed the line in Abu Dhabi. Back then it was quite difficult to really realise what had just happened. But around Christmas I got a couple of days to myself and then I could come to terms with it.

As a sportsman you’re always looking forward. That process happens quite quickly when you race week to week. With the Championship it took a little bit longer, but it was a very nice process. Now though, 2010 is behind us. It’s a very proud memory, but now it’s 2011 and there’s another job to do, so we move to the next challenge, which is trying to do the same again.

preseason
The preparation has been good. It was a long winter and we did a lot of kilometres, I think more than we ever have done before during testing, which is positive. Now we are just looking forward to Melbourne.
