If you’ve never heard of Formula One racer Sebastian Vettel, go ahead and take a minute to familiarize yourself with the young man. If present trends continue, he will soon take his place alongside the all-time greats of the high octane sport. After three short years of cutting his teeth against the best competition the world has to offer, Vettle’s 2011 season has been nothing short of legendary. In the span of only 19 races, Vettel attained an astonishing 15 pole positions and an eye-popping 11 wins.

The 24-year-old phenom began the season by winning six of the first eight races and finished no worse than 2nd place until the tenth race of the year. When the dust settled on one of the single most impressive seasons in racing history, Vettel had attained 392 total points and his second consecutive first place finish. Vettel was born in West Germany in the late 1980s. As a youth, he idolized Michael Jordan and Michael Jackson from across the pond. He aspired to be an International pop singer, but his dreams were soon dashed when it became clear that he had little talent in the vocal department. By the time he was eight years old, Vettel was driving carts competitively on a youth circuit, and his talent on the track soon became clear.

After getting a whiff of the big leagues as a test driver for BMV in 2006, Vettel’s first full year of F1 racing came in 2008, where he made 18 starts en route to one pole position and one victory. He raced for the reputable Scuderia Toro Rosso Racing Team, who realized that they had a very talented young driver on their hands.

Unfortunately for Toro Rosso, upstart Red Bull Racing lured Vettel on board their upstart squad in 2009, and the pairing turned out to be highly beneficial for both parties. After four pole positions, four wins and a 2nd place overall finish in 2009, Vettel improved on his performance in 2010, achieving 10 poles, five 1st place finishes and the initial of what is likely to be many 1st place finishes in overall points.
