Red Bull boss Christian Horner believes Sebastian Vettel performs at his best when under pressure during a Formula One title fight, pointing to his performances in his previous championship-winning campaigns.
Vettel heads into the second half of the 2017 season 14 points clear of chief title rival Lewis Hamilton after sealing his fourth win of the year at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Following their controversial clash under the Safety Car in Baku, Hamilton suggested Vettel's actions reflect the German's lack of composure under pressure.
The majority of the remaining nine circuits are projected to favour Mercedes' package compared to Ferrari's, with reigning F1 world champion Nico Rosberg expecting the Silver Arrows to pull clear of the Scuderia before the end of the season.
