Sebastian Vettel claimed the first of his 42 career victories (so far) at a rain-soaked 2008 Italian Grand Prix, driving a sensational race in his Toro Rosso STR03 to become the youngest winner in F1 history aged 21 years and 73 days. His record lasted until this year’s Spanish Grand Prix where Red Bull’s latest hotshoe Max Verstappen smashed it by over two years.
