Here you go:

1. Youngest ever F1 driver
2. Youngest ever F1 point scorer
3. Youngest ever Driver to get F1 Pole Position
4. Youngest ever F1 race winner
5. Youngest ever F1 champion

Looks impressive enough to me!

The kid is good, no doubt about it...
And next year he may even become youngest ever double WDC !!

Impressive... but as Ive been following his progress from Forumla BMW days it is not totally unexpected once in got into F1 at so young an age.

And the year after that youngest triple champion.

With some growth and more maturity in the series, he would have added more races to that list and clinched the title earlier as well. I think he is well on the road to greatness.

It's hard to say long term what records he might beat or come close to, but with the talent in todays field I think those long term records may be harder to beat than they were to set.

**gIWnXYkw** · 11-15-2010, 03:41 AM

I thought it was Alguersuari the youngest ever F1 Driver...

**houkbsdov** · 11-15-2010, 03:52 AM

He would be, but ioan doesn't like him

**Candykiss** · 11-15-2010, 04:07 AM

I thought it was Alguersuari the youngest ever F1 Driver...

He is listed as the youngest to actually start a F1 race, along with 5 others who were younger than Vettel. Vettel is listed as youngest to take part in a meeting, which I assume to be practice.

**SeftyJokipl** · 11-15-2010, 04:12 AM

The only one who can match him is probably Kimi in the other Bull.

But that´s only my opinion i suppose.

**Yyaqyped** · 11-15-2010, 04:12 AM

I am flabbergasted.

Totally thought that Alonso was going to win, but this is a pleasant surprise and furthermore it's incredible since I've been a fan of Vettel since his days at BMW. Time to call out the haters!

Where are you Garry Walker? I guess Vettel still isn't WDC material.

Here you go:

1. Youngest ever F1 driver
2. Youngest ever F1 point scorer
3. Youngest ever Driver to get F1 Pole Position
4. Youngest ever F1 race winner
5. Youngest ever F1 champion

Looks impressive enough to me!

Not impressive enough. Vettel must now cure cancer or else he's a false WDC.

My bad, sorry I mixed that part up.

Number 5 is the only achievement. The rest seems redundant. Afterall you don't get to be World Champion without getting into points, get pole, win a race. And you need to be a F1 driver in order to get to target number 2-5.

That is akin to saying just because a pilot is awarded the DSO his DFC is redundant... they are achievements along his career, each a milestone and each in this case a record in it's own right.

One does not follow the other, the youngest driver ever to get a pole may spend years getting a win and may never become a WDC.

**Candykiss** · 11-15-2010, 08:13 AM

This is correct. Of the 6 drivers mentioned as starting a race at a younger age then Vettel, only Fernado Alonso has won to date. Of course he achieved many of the same records broken by Vettel. Vettel's feats are impressive.

**i32I7qyH** · 11-15-2010, 08:24 AM

In this case it does. Because the reverse is true. The youngest world champion, means he did get pole and wins. I'm forgetting that Vettel won races in 2009, did he got a pole in that season?

He became the youngest pole winner at the 2008 Italian GP, which he won, making him the youngest race winner.

**derty** · 11-15-2010, 09:44 AM

congratulations to Vettel and the Red Bull Team on a thrilling season. Well Done.

**werkeeque** · 11-15-2010, 09:57 AM

Not bad for a #1 driver at all!

**iceleliewBync** · 11-15-2010, 11:43 AM

Here you go:

1. Youngest ever F1 driver
2. Youngest ever F1 point scorer
3. Youngest ever Driver to get F1 Pole Position
4. Youngest ever F1 race winner
5. Youngest ever F1 champion

Looks impressive enough to me!

And youngest driver not to listen to stupid suggestions that he should have moved over for his team mate in Brazil.

**Franchise** · 11-15-2010, 12:17 PM

first driver to finish the race and not know that he was world champion
