Sebastian Vettel is confident that he can get his season back on track this weekend, as the Formula One roadshow lands in Belgium.
The defending World Champion has just one race win to his name this year, and is 42 points adrift of leader, Fernando Alonso, and perhaps more worryingly for the German, behind teammate Mark Webber.
This season has been a stark contrast from last, where Vettel won five of the six opening races, and had the title all but sewn up by the mid-season break.
Instead of building on a solid lead, this season the 25-year-old must hunt down his title rivals, and he believes he can start the mission at Spa.
“The Spa circuit is defined by the surrounding nature and it’s one of my favourite tracks. I was very happy to have won there last year,” he told the Telegraph.
“Spa offers every type of racing corner; ultra-fast, medium-fast and slow chicanes, that alternate with fast straights.
“The difference in altitude and the unpredictable weather really make the track a big challenge.”
Vettel will surely be amongst the favourites for maximum points in Belgium, alongside Alonso, Webber, Lewis Hamilton and Kimi Raikkonen.
