With five victories in six series of series that have been held, Vettel firmly on top of the standings with 58 points margin over nearest rivals. Lift 58 is equivalent to twice the victory coupled with a one-time race finish in sixth.
Two out of three last season, the drivers that came out at the end of the competition is a racer who has won five times wins.

"One hundred percent of me is ready to do that. He (Vettel) is experiencing problems with the tires in the 10 lap final. That's exactly when we attacked, but unfortunately the remaining 10 laps the safety car was constrained moment," he said.
so that conditions are more difficult, there's not much room for overtaking. there are only 50 percent likely to be able to overtake, the other remaining 50 percent chance of accidents.
