Sebastian Vettel looked to be on the way to another victory when the gearbox problem struck. Dominating the race again from pole position, Vettel was advised by his engineer Guillaume Rocquelin that he had a “serious gearbox problem” and that he needed to “short-shift” to ensure he finished the race. At first, Vettel seemed to ignore Guillaume’s advice as he continued to coast through the race track with Webber. But after three more warnings from the engineer, Sebastian Vettel heeded Guillaume’s call.
Still, Sebastian Vettel has had an excellent season – taking 11 wins and a record 15 pole positions from 19 grands prix – despite having to lose the last leg.
