“Vettel did not even know he had won the title until after he had taken the chequered flag. “To be honest I did not know anything. I wondered. In the last 10 laps my engineer Rocky [Guillaume Rocquelin] was giving me advice to help me get the car home. I wondered why he was so nervous. I thought we must be in a good position, then he said ‘it’s looking good’, I didn’t know what he meant. I just focused on myself and they came on the radio and screamed that we have won the world championship.”
